That did cross my mind, but I was worried that trying to explain all that
here could cause confusion.
If PROCESS_MAIN is set (the default), it's time to vacuum the main
relation. Otherwise, we can skip this part. If processing the TOAST
table is required (e.g., PROCESS_TOAST is set), we'll force
PROCESS_MAIN to be set when we recurse to the TOAST table so that it
gets processed here.
How does that sound?
