Well, but I'd like to use those "row numbers" in a comparison
right inside the view definition ...

Eg.:

There are 5 vaccinations in a given vaccination schedule.

Patient had 3 shots.

I want the view to show me that shot 4 and 5 are missing
without having to enter the cardinality of the vaccination in
the original data.
