"could could" seems like an accidental duplication

700b422af7e says the release note should mention more details:

It's probably unlikely that people have commonly done this, but the
release notes may wish to note that people should check if this has
happened to them...

This is a server side fix

+ <para>
+ Formerly <application>pg_dump</application> would
+ emit <literal>ALTER INDEX ... SET STATISTICS</literal> commands when

+ via <literal>UNIQUE</literal> or <literal>PRIMARY KEY</literal>
+ syntax.
+ </para>
+ </listitem>

this only affects EXCLUDE constraints, because it can only be set on
an expression columns. So maybe:

Formerly pg_dump would emit ALTER INDEX ... SET STATISTICS commands
when needed for plain indexes, but not for the index underlying an
EXCLUDE constraint.
