Yeah, actually I had the same impression when studying this feature.
Another benefit of having a separate view for such statistics would be
that it can also support logical decoding invoked by SQL interface.
Currently, reorder buffer always tracks statistics of spilled
transactions but we can see it only in using logical replication.
