NATURAL JOIN never fails?

3230015Sep 30 2016 — edited Nov 11 2016

Every time someone joins 2 tables in the HR schema provided by Oracle with Database 12c using NATURAL JOIN in the simplest SQL queries starting by "SELECT * ", it always returns a result. The query never fails nor comes out empty.

I wander... What is happening behind the scenes? Is Oracle 12c resolving the query each time across the HR schema or what?
