   The <filename>pg_collect_advice</filename> extension allows you to
   automatically generate plan advice each time a query is planned and store
   the query and the generated advice string either in local or shared memory.
+  Collection enablement and entries are described below, but importantly,
+  there is no deduplication involved; each planning event produces one entry,
+  and a mandatory cap on the number of entries allowed must be set before
+  enabling collection.
