Seems like a reasonable approach.

Maybe better:

    Other possibilities will be excluded for lack of join clauses.
    (In reality, use of EquivalenceClasses would allow us to
    deduce additional join clauses that allow more join
    combinations, but here we ignore that to preserve the
    simplicity of this example.)
