I am curious about this plan:

+-- ORDER BY's in multiple Window functions can be combined into one
+-- if they are subset of QUERY's ORDER BY
+EXPLAIN (COSTS OFF)
+SELECT empno,
+       depname,
+       min(salary) OVER (PARTITION BY depname ORDER BY empno) depminsalary,
+       sum(salary) OVER (PARTITION BY depname) depsalary,
+       count(*) OVER (ORDER BY enroll_date DESC) c
+FROM empsalary
+ORDER BY depname, empno, enroll_date;
+                      QUERY PLAN
+------------------------------------------------------
+ WindowAgg
+   ->  WindowAgg
+         ->  Sort
+               Sort Key: depname, empno, enroll_date
+               ->  WindowAgg
+                     ->  Sort
+                           Sort Key: enroll_date DESC
+                           ->  Seq Scan on empsalary
+(8 rows)
+


Why aren't min() and sum() calculated on the same WindowAgg run?
