Will then toast be used > for something else? No, if you set it to plain it won't be stored externally. But setting to plain actually increases the size of data (no short varlenas anymore), so its not really a sensible choice imo. It also doesn't prevent creation of a toast table - it just won't get used. If you only create columns that are too short for toast (like varchar(12) or so), the toast table won't get created.
