nvarchar串联/索引/ nvarchar（max）莫名其妙的行为

-- base table
create table bla (
    [id] int identity(1,1) primary key,
    [priority] int,
    [msg] nvarchar(max),
    [autofix] bit

-- table without primary key on id column
create table bla2 (
    [id] int identity(1,1),
    [priority] int,
    [msg] nvarchar(max),
    [autofix] bit
)

-- table with nvarchar(1000) instead of max
create table bla3 (
    [id] int identity(1,1) primary key,
    [priority] int,
    [msg] nvarchar(1000),
    [autofix] bit
)

-- fill the three tables with the same values
insert into bla ([priority], [msg], [autofix])
values (1, 'A', 0),
       (2, 'B', 0)

insert into bla2 ([priority], [msg], [autofix])
values (1, 'A', 0),
       (2, 'B', 0)

insert into bla3 ([priority], [msg], [autofix])
