hi.

https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/pageinspect.html#id-1.11.7.34.6

> This is a B-tree leaf page. All tuples that point to the table happen to be posting list tuples (all of which store a

(all of which store a total of 100 6 byte TIDs)
I think the meaning is something like:
(all of which store a total of 100 TIDs, each TID is 6 byte long.)

 What's the meaning of  (16, 8292)?  After looking around. I'm still confused.
Would it be better to add an explanation about (16, 8292) to the docs?
