Good catch!  I think the root cause of that is: when using 
use_remote_estimate, remote estimates obtained through remote EXPLAIN 
are rounded off to two decimal places, which I completely overlooked. 
Will fix.  I think I can post a new version early next week.

Thanks for the review and the test case!
