 Taking in consideration the app of tutorial for demonstrate the issue.
 using postgresql as db.

 Executing this following code:

 {{{
 subquery = Comment.objects.filter(created_at__lt=datetime(2022, 6,
 1))[:1000]
 Comment.objects..filter(id__in=subquery).delete()
 }}}

 Generates the following SQL:

 {{{
 DELETE FROM "comment" WHERE "comment"."id" IN (SELECT V0."id" FROM
 "comment" V0 WHERE V0."id" IN (SELECT U0."id" FROM "comment" U0 WHERE
 U0."created_at" < \'2022-06-01T00:00:00+00:00\'::timestamptz LIMIT 1000))
 }}}

 The inner **select V0** is completely unnecessary

 If a simple select with the same subquery is executed. It generates
 expected SQL query.

 {{{
 subquery = Comment.objects.filter(created_at__lt=datetime(2022, 6,
 1))[:1000]
 comments = list( Comment.objects..filter(id__in=subquery) )
 }}}

 {{{
 SELECT * FROM "comment" WHERE "comment"."id" IN (SELECT U0."id" FROM
 "comment" U0 WHERE U0."created_at" <
 '2022-06-01T00:00:00+00:00'::timestamptz LIMIT 1000),
 }}}
