The only caveat that I can think of here is that each of the customer_id's in 
the subselect ARE in the MCV list for the parent_customer column for that 
customer_rel table.  If I had listed SPECIFIC customer ids in the subselect, I 
would get spot-on row estimates.  Is there anything there that gives me any 
hope?
