  * A mix in interface for {@link Scan}. Data sources can implement this interface to
  * report statistics to Spark.
  *
- * As of Spark 2.4, statistics are reported to the optimizer before any operator is pushed to the
- * data source. Implementations that return more accurate statistics based on pushed operators will
- * not improve query performance until the planner can push operators before getting stats.
+ * As of Spark 3.0, statistics are reported to the optimizer after operators are pushed to the
+ * data source. Implementations may return more accurate statistics based on pushed operators
+ * which may improve query performance by providing better information to the optimizer.

  * @since 3.0.0
