Those show that the GUC was disabled by showing disable_cost. That's what's
different about this one.
Fwiw in the past this was seen not so much as a positive thing but a bug to be fixed. We've talked about carrying a boolean "disabled plan" flag which would be treated as a large cost penalty but not actually be added to the cost in the plan.
The problems with the disable_cost in the cost are (at least):
1) It causes the resulting costs to be useless for comparing the plan costs with other plans.
2) It can cause other planning decisions to be distorted in strange non-linear ways.
