Great, then it's unclear, to me at least, what you're getting at in your response here. Just to be clear as to which I was referring to, what I said there was that I felt the way we've been operating is striking a good balance and that my concern on this thread was that people appeared to be trying to move us away from that. Today, at least, I feel like we are careful and that we consider the impact on indexes when we're making changes to immutable functions, and that when we do make such changes, they're for very good reasons and that we make a note of them in release notes and possibly go farther, such as considering if we could check for their usage during pg_upgrade. Do you feel that's overly aggressive and that we shouldn't care about the impact of changing immutable functions that could be used in indexes across major versions? I don't get the impression that you do from your prior response, but then it doesn't square with the later comments about how I'm being carried away and trying to take some principled stand against evil, so I admit to being confused. Thanks! Stephen
