With regards to write amplification, it makes me think about about OIDs. Used to be, every row had an OID and that OID persisted across row versions.

Would reintroducing such a feature address some of Uber's concerns about multiple indexes? It could, and would do so without the implicit requirement of a foreign key; but it would also require a fast OID to CTID mapping.

Would it be best to increase OIDs to 64 bits?

Possibly a choice of 32/64 to be decided when the DB is created???
