Thanks for explaining your point of view. I've not shifted my opinion any, so I guess we just disagree. I feel a strong enough dislike for the current EXPLAIN output to feel it's worth working harder to have a better output. I won't push my point any further unless someone else appears supporting Laurenz and I. Thank you for working on getting rid of the disabled_cost. I think what we have is now much better than before. The EXPLAIN output is the only part I dislike about this work. I'd encourage anyone else on the sidelines who has an opinion on how to display the disabled-ness of a plan node in EXPLAIN to speak up now, even if it's just a +1 to something someone has already written. It would be nice to see what more people think. David
