It also doesn't extrapolate range function results. This addresses [this issue from Prometheus](https://github.com/prometheus/prometheus/issues/3746). + See technical details about VictoriaMetrics and Prometheus calculations for `rate()` and `increase()` [here](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1215#issuecomment-850305711). * MetricsQL returns the expected non-empty responses for requests with `step` values smaller than scrape interval. This addresses [this issue from Grafana](https://github.com/grafana/grafana/issues/11451). * MetricsQL treats `scalar` type the same as `instant vector` without labels, since subtle difference between these types usually confuses users. See [the corresponding Prometheus docs](https://prometheus.io/docs/prometheus/latest/querying/basics/#expression-language-data-types) for details.
