I still think this needs to be qualified either way. As it stands it's

Doesn't the detail description qualify it enought? The heading isn't
suppose to have all the information or it would be unreadable.
If you don't want to be more specific I'd say "certain updates" or "some
updates" or something similar, just some flag to say it's not all of them.
Good idea. I added "most":
Heap-Only Tuples (<acronym>HOT</>) accelerate space reuse for most
<command>UPDATE</>s (Pavan Deolasee, with ideas from many others)
But that's not true either. For example, in my current $dayjob app not
one significant update will benefit - we have an index rich environment.
You have no basis for saying "most" that I can see. We really should not
be in the hyp business in our release notes - that job belongs to the
commercial promoters ;-)
