Remark 40.6.2. Warning: Lemma 40.6.1 should be used with care. For example, it applies to $\mathcal{P}=$“flat”, $\mathcal{Q}=$“empty”, and $\mathcal{R}=$“flat and locally of finite presentation”. But given a morphism of schemes $f : X \to Y$ the largest open $W \subset X$ such that $f|_ W$ is flat is not the set of points where $f$ is flat!
