Comment (by Abhinav Yadav):
I have been reading up about this issue to continue and finish it off from
where David left it, and I have some doubts. The SQL query left by Felix
[https://github.com/django/django/pull/14731#discussion_r745505740 in this
comment] also doesn't generate any QuerySet or objects. I tried to run
that query using `Manager.raw()`, which generated no results.
Further I investigated the `resolve_expression` method of `SliceableF`
class in `django/db/models/expressions.py`, and compared it to other
implementations of resovle_expression method in other classes but couldn't
find anything concrete which might point to where the error might be.
Does a special method for handling slicing and indexing for OuterRef query
need to be written so it is properly resolved? That is what I'm thinking
because I can't find anything else that is properly handling slicing for
OuterRef Queries, unless I'm missing something.
Also should `None` be used instead of `''` in slice_expression for end if
length is not provided?
