Description

Use estimated table parameters is enabled by default for MSSQL layers but Use estimated table metadata is disabled for PostGIS layers.

I previously asked for PostGIS to have estimation turned on by default in #3453, but it was shot down due to fear of bad estimates. But how likely will estimation produce unreliable results here? I still wonder if unreliable results is a boundary case? In the least, shouldn't we have consistent parameters for both DB types?
