Great news! Thank you for these measurements!

BTW, I caught myself thinking that Tom Lane and maybe some other people might
not like our parameter propagation logic. We are not building any new
capability, but supplying an utilitarian solution for a single feature.
Perhaps someone will not consider this a good way to develop new features.

However, I don't think that this is something bad. We have a pretty simple
logic which does not interfere with some other infrastructure. On the other
hand, maybe I am thinking in terms of bigtech product development, where
results (but not the design) are often the most important thing.
