Peter Eisentraut is right... The rewritten query I suggested is only
derived from your original query and implicit data definitions
(including constraints).

I would like to point 2 things about that rewritten proposed query:
- Column 'inserted' is likely missing in the 2nd subquery and in the
global join condition;
- Duplicity or even multiplicity of value s.name and/or p.name may
result depending on the keys of tables (as implicitly mentioned by Peter
Eisentraut).

Regards.
