    @nsyca Thanks. I know there could be such cases when size is also useful. 
However, usually big tables (fact table) have more columns than small tables, 
so cardinality and size is positively correlated, i.e. relation with larger 
cardinality also has larger size.
    Again, I agree with you in some cases this could be violated. But we also 
need to consider from implementation aspect. Do column pruning after reordering 
makes more sense and makes the code much conciser.
