Perhaps, but the code allows that be design, and people like forking
Postgres.

FWIW, another idea I have on top of my mind is the addition of a
counter in JumbleState that we increment each time we enter
_jumbleNode(), then simply call JUMBLE_FIELD_SINGLE() after the
incrementation. And we can rely on this counter to be unique each
time we jumble a node..
