The following documentation comment has been logged on the website:
Page: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/10/static/using-explain.html
Description:
"(Every correct plan will output the same row set, we trust.)"
Does this sentence mean that "every correct plan will *in most cases* output
the same row set"? Or something different altogether?

This is a slightly silly way of saying, if the code is correct, then
every plan will output the same set of rows.
I think it's OK to leave it like that.
