When adding or modifying queries to improve performance:
- [ ] Included data that shows the performance improvement, preferably in the form of a benchmark
- [ ] Included the output of `EXPLAIN (ANALYZE, BUFFERS)` of the relevant queries
When adding foreign keys to existing tables:
- [ ] Included a migration to remove orphaned rows in the source table before adding the foreign key

When adding tables:
