Oh, I'm sure the CBO changed alrighty, I have bunches of queries that got mugged. My question was about factual issues:

Does the upgrade from one version of the db to another touch indexes, or other objects, outside the data dictionary? and
Can index organization affect the number of entries used in a query execution plan.

I think Oracle is telling me stories.
