PostgreSQL partition restrictions behave strangely

Question

PostgreSQL partition restrictions behave strangely

I have a table divided into two columns, expiredand type_id. expiredis logical and type_idsection by range. Examples of tables:

mos_active_1
...
mos_active_15
mos_expired_1
...
mos_expired_15

My restrictions are configured as follows:

ADD CONSTRAINT mos_active_1_check CHECK (expired = false AND type_id < 100 )
...
ADD CONSTRAINT mos_expired_1_check CHECK (expired = true AND type_id < 100 )

If now I run SELECT * from mos WHERE expired = true AND type_id = 34, everything works as expected, just deleted mos_expired_1.

Result  (cost=0.00..19.77 rows=2 width=627)
  ->  Append  (cost=0.00..19.77 rows=2 width=627)
        ->  Seq Scan on mos  (cost=0.00..11.50 rows=1 width=627)
              Filter: (expired AND (type_id = 34))
        ->  Index Scan using index_mos_expired_1_on_type_id_and_region_id on mos_expired_1 mos  (cost=0.00..8.27 rows=1 width=627)
              Index Cond: (type_id = 34)
              Filter: expired

Oddly enough, it SELECT * from mos WHERE expired = false AND type_id = 34does not work . EXPLAINindicates that both are requested mos_expired_1and mos_active_1.

Result  (cost=0.00..2464.71 rows=5863 width=150)
  ->  Append  (cost=0.00..2464.71 rows=5863 width=150)
        ->  Seq Scan on mos  (cost=0.00..11.50 rows=1 width=627)
              Filter: ((NOT expired) AND (type_id = 34))
        ->  Index Scan using index_mos_expired_1_on_type_id_and_region_id on mos_expired_1 mos  (cost=0.00..8.27 rows=1 width=627)
              Index Cond: (type_id = 34)
              Filter: (NOT expired)
        ->  Bitmap Heap Scan on mos_active_1 mos  (cost=113.68..2444.95 rows=5861 width=150)
              Recheck Cond: (type_id = 34)
              Filter: (NOT expired)
              ->  Bitmap Index Scan on index_mos_active_1_on_type_id  (cost=0.00..112.22 rows=5861 width=0)
                    Index Cond: (type_id = 34)

full SQL (besides actually creating the mos table)

I would really like to know if there is something or something like a query planner.

: , :

CREATE TABLE mos (type_id   INTEGER UNIQUE, expired boolean);
CREATE TABLE mos_expired_1 ( CHECK ( expired = true  ) ) INHERITS (mos);
CREATE TABLE mos_active_1 ( CHECK ( expired = false ) ) INHERITS (mos);
INSERT INTO mos_expired_1 (type_id,expired) VALUES(1, true);
INSERT INTO mos_active_1 (type_id,expired) VALUES(2, false);
EXPLAIN SELECT * from mos where expired = false;
EXPLAIN SELECT * from mos where expired = true;
