Thanks for explaining your point of view. I've not shifted my opinion
any, so I guess we just disagree. I feel a strong enough dislike for
the current EXPLAIN output to feel it's worth working harder to have a
better output.
I won't push my point any further unless someone else appears
supporting Laurenz and I. Thank you for working on getting rid of the
disabled_cost. I think what we have is now much better than before.
The EXPLAIN output is the only part I dislike about this work.
I'd encourage anyone else on the sidelines who has an opinion on how
to display the disabled-ness of a plan node in EXPLAIN to speak up
now, even if it's just a +1 to something someone has already written.
It would be nice to see what more people think.
