It's not hard to foresee that we might have to fix those assumptions
someday.  If we were buying a lot by adding a similar assumption here,
it might be worth doing even in the face of having to revert it later.
But we're not buying much.  A few instructions during postmaster shutdown
is entirely negligible.
