Needs some discussion. Has anyone actually reported corruption related to
this? I don't doubt the opinion, but I do wonder why I have never seen
reports of corruption related to this when people have readily reported
such things in years past about pg_repack. If it (apparently) works so
well in practice for so many companies, but has this bug, why not leverage
what they have done and fix its bugs when it serves such an important
function? The extension serves a huge need on many fronts.
