FWIW, I understood that the intention here is to be careful,
particularly if expand_partitioned_rtentry begins to get called from a
different code path in the future, which is something that would likely
happen.  We could replace that by an assertion or even an elog(), and
change again this code in the future, now what's proposed here makes
quite some sense to me as well.
