As I explained, derived tables and CTEs are statement-scoped named table expressions. Once the statement that defines them finishes, they’re gone. As usual when discussing relational theory, we SQL practitioners are often told that the terminology we’re using is wrong. The statement with the outer query against the view.

When the parser allows simple parameterization to continue, SQL Server® increments the Auto-Param Attempts/sec counter of the SQL Statistics object. Assigns an initial data type.
