It seems like "This last trigger" in the current text is intended to mean "The
second condition". Your change improves that.
Should we also consider enabling autosummarize by default ?
It was added in v10, after BRIN was added in v9.5. For us, brin wasn't usable
without autosummarize.
Also, note that vacuums are now triggered by insertions, since v13, so it might
be that autosummarize is needed much less.
