I'm not sure about it either. It seems to me that we were afraid of regressions, and having this overcharged just made us miss a new optimization without changing existing plans. With ordered aggregates, the balance is a bit trickier and we are at risk of either regressing on aggregate plans, or more common ordered ones. -- Ronan Dunklau
