I agree that the comment block should be removed, as it doesn't seem
so useful. I previously mentioned commit 49ce6fff1d34, which moved the comments
on heap_drop_with_catalog, but I also noticed that the step-by-step overview had
already been removed in commit 448eb0837f7a8, due to changes in the function’s 
logic.
