It is acceptable for me to have Memoize estimations covered by the COSTS
option.
This data may help both developers and the users. For us, it provides
information on how good group estimations are and lets us identify gaps
in the prediction code. A user may find insights about ways to optimise
the query, detecting stale statistics or defining extended statistics.
This makes it very difficult to

I think user already has enough data to determine whether Memoize was
the right choice - hits/misses/evictions show that.
