The following documentation comment has been logged on the website:

Page: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/15/indexes-multicolumn.html
Description:

In the documentation on
https://www.postgresql.org/account/comments/new/15/indexes-multicolumn.html/

```
Constraints on columns to the right of these columns are checked in the
index, so they save visits to the table proper, but they do not reduce the
portion of the index that has to be scanned. 
```

"so they save visits to the table proper" should be "so they save visits to
the table heap".

Doesn't seem like an improvement from here, especially not with one
eye on the non-heap table AMs that are being worked on.
