maybe include at extra "estimative rows count" just to understand what happened
Row count in the EXPLAIN output is *always* an estimation, there is no need to specify it explicitly because it is always the case.
I suppose you've seen the answer in the bug report. But just for the sake of completeness I repeat it here.
CONNECT does not read rows several times. But in the CSV file format, rows can have different lengths and CONNECT cannot directly know how many rows your table has. So, it *estimates* the number of rows by dividing the file length by the minimal row length (which it can calculate from the table definition).
