I feel as if this should be very simple, but it's behaving strangely.

I have 3 entities, with a relationship as such

Entity A <-->> Entity B <<--> Entity C

I have an NSFetchedResults controller and I'm trying to filter the results of Entity A using the following predicate.

[NSPredicate predicateWithFormat:@"NONE entityB.entityC == %@", self.entityC];

When I try and run the app, the output shows no results. I can alter the predicate slightly to:

[NSPredicate predicateWithFormat:@"ANY entityB.entityC == %@", self.entityC];

And it shows me only the results that I want it to filter out.

Why is this happening?
