Yeah, I think you are right. The thing here is that we don't have a
reliable way to determine if the input expression of a NullTest is
non-nullable if it's a clone clause. This applies to both
restriction_is_always_true and restriction_is_always_false. So I
think we should add the same check in restriction_is_always_false too.
I'll give it a try to find a query that shows this is necessary.
Thanks
