Yes, I've seen this argument and know that aliases will make these queries look different. However, we regularly hear from many different customers that they *don't control queries* sent by application or *can't modify these queries*. Such kinds of workloads are also not that uncommon and this change makes it impossible to monitor them. I would somewhat understand when a table in the query is used without specifying schema and such queries are merged together: s1: SET search_path s1; select count(*) from t; s2: SET search_path s2; select count(*) from t; But, even this case doesn't feel right, because these tables are still different and therefore queries.
