I don't know of any tools that consume the text representation of the exec
summary. Even if they did, I don't think they can reasonably expect that we
never change the format.

I'd be inclined to always include the instances column so that the format
is consistent, even if the information is redundant. I don't feel that
strongly about it though - I can see the argument for reducing the amount
of data displayed.
