​IIUC it is correct: the additional total_cost comes from processing every
output group to check whether it is qualified - since every group is
checked the incoming output_tuples from the prior grouping is used.  The
side-effect of the effort is that the number of output_tuples has now been
reduced to only those matching the qual - and so it now must take on a new
value to represent this.
