It would if subplans could have more than one call site, but they can't.

I do intend to force qualification of Vars that are printed as a result
of param expansion; for example consider a standard nestloop-with-
inner-indexscan plan:

        NestLoop
                Seq Scan on a
                Index Scan on b
                        Index Cond: x = a.y

If y weren't qualified to show that it's not a variable of b, this could
be confusing.  But as long as we do that, it pretty much matches our
historical behavior.  Note that CVS HEAD is printing this case as

        NestLoop
                Seq Scan on a
                Index Scan on b
                        Index Cond: x = $0

which is definitely not very helpful.

                        regards, tom lane
