Reading [1], I think I can follow what you suggest. So, basically,
if the leftmost column is not filtered, we have the following:

So, in our case, we could follow a similar approach. If the leftmost column
of the index
is not sent over the wire from the pub, we can prefer the sequential scan.

Is my understanding of your suggestion accurate?

I agree that it is a good change. Added to v42
