Description
The use of a reducer that adds all of the elements that it consumes to a list is the primary way in which this occurs - if instead, we produce a filtered iterable, or a collection of filtered iterables, we can lazily iterate over all of the contained elements without having to buffer all of the elements.
For an example of where this occurs, see `Concatenate` in `FlinkBatchPortablePipelineTranslator`.
