The industry keeps asking for index hints in the SQL standard. Codd named indexing dependence as a defect to be cured, in 1970, in the paper that introduced the relational model.

A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green. In this one, Blue approaches Green. Green is wearing a chef's hat and holding an oven tray of something ambiguous.
Blue: What are you making?
Green: A concotion.
Blue: A what?
Green: I wanted to bake something, but I didn't have any of the ingredients so I improvised.
Blue: ...Is it good?
Green: No.
