As AndrewSN already pointed out, the argument is all wet because it
ignores the use of OIDs for toasted values ... not to mention large
objects.  Yeah, it would take a while to wrap the counter, but it's
hardly out of the question for it to happen.

As it happens, I've spent today working on a patch, and I'm about to
post it for comment.
