I think this is a port of the dplyr syntax/verbs only. None of the dplyr C++ code is used, it's all syntactic sugar on top of Pandas. So any SQL translation is going to be similar to what Pandas does.

siuba does the SQL translation :). pandas is used for local data, since it does a lot of optimization in c++, similar to dplyr's low level code.

Thanks for bringing this up--the docs could be clearer here

Yeah, I probably used the wrong word, I didn't think it used the dplyr code, just that it looked much more like dplyr
