AFAIK, The query isn't check all values that meet the other criteria
against all values of the subquery but instead check the value from each
row that meets the other criteria against all the values in the subquery.
If the values in the subquery are distinct, it's not going to return true.
Is there another solution instead the one i'm using can you help me in that?
