Actually it is still true, but with TOAST compression available for
individual columns it hardly ever matters anymore. If you have enough
columns in your table to be running afoul of the limit, you probably
oughta be thinking about a redesign of your database schema anyway.
But for the record: BLCKSZ is the thing to poke if you really must.
