      Right now we don't support passing allowDiskUse to an aggregation pipeline explain plan, thus users are not able to see an accurate explain plan when an aggregation is complex enough that requires allowDiskUse (like sorting, heavily grouping and so on).

      It seems that there was already an effort to add allowDiskUse to the aggregate execution itself (see COMPASS-2722 linked to this task).
