    2 corrections applied: Correct authors of the 2016 CACM paper are Rachel Potvin and Josh Levenberg, not Evan Martin. | EXPLAIN and EXPLAIN ANALYZE are not split between the two engines; both support EXPLAIN, and EXPLAIN ANALYZE is in PostgreSQL and MySQL 8.0.18+.

    Before

    Evan Martin's Why Google Stores Billions of Lines of Code in a Single Repository ... EXPLAIN (PostgreSQL) or EXPLAIN ANALYZE (MySQL)

    After

    Rachel Potvin and Josh Levenberg's Why Google Stores Billions of Lines of Code in a Single Repository ... EXPLAIN or EXPLAIN ANALYZE (both PostgreSQL and MySQL 8.0.18+)

    Why: Verified live: both corrections (correct paper authors, EXPLAIN/EXPLAIN ANALYZE support across both databases) already present in article content. FAQ JSON-LD checked and contains no mention of either fabrication, so no secondary fabrication found.
