So it scans 1500000 rows from each partition, but ...

Estimates the number of distinct values in each partition as between
113846 and 124312. So it can have encountered at most that many
different values, which means that it must have encountered each value
about 12 or 13 times on average.
My guess is that there are relatively few (less than 120000) distinct
values which make up the bulk (over 90 %) of these tables and a lot (33
million) values which are very rare.
Is this guess correct?
