A basic difference in the warehouse queries we work with is that only
"of interest" dimensions are included in the predicate.  Thus if one
wants to limit the location, the join and predicate are modified to
include a restriction to the location dimension and then the North
American rows within that dimension.  If location is not important,
the relevant join and predicate fragments are excluded from the query.
 That effectively masks some of the issues you outline and reflects
the more dynamic nature of warehouse SQL reporting and extract
statements.
