Reusing a relfilenode of a deleted relation, before next checkpoint following the commit of the deleting transaction, for an operation that doesn't WAL log the contents of the new relation, leads to data loss on recovery. Or Performing non-WAL logged operations on a relation file leads to a truncated file on recovery, if the relfilenode of that file used to belong to a relation that was dropped after the last checkpoint.
