I think this might be the same issue recently discussed here:

https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/flat/1df84daa-7d0d-e8cc-4762-85523e45e5e7%40mailbox.org

That discussion was leaning towards the idea that the cost-benefit
of fixing this isn't attractive and we should just document the
discrepancy.  However, with two reports now, maybe we should rethink.
