That's only because that seemed like the appropriate thing for the given
case's statistics.  [ fiddles with example... ]

regression=# explain select * from tenk1 a where thousand in (select f1 from 
int4_tbl b);
                                        QUERY PLAN                              
          
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Nested Loop  (cost=5.39..198.81 rows=51 width=244)
   ->  HashAggregate  (cost=1.06..1.11 rows=5 width=4)
         ->  Seq Scan on int4_tbl b  (cost=0.00..1.05 rows=5 width=4)
   ->  Bitmap Heap Scan on tenk1 a  (cost=4.33..39.41 rows=10 width=244)
         Recheck Cond: (a.thousand = b.f1)
         ->  Bitmap Index Scan on tenk1_thous_tenthous  (cost=0.00..4.33 
rows=10 width=0)
               Index Cond: (a.thousand = b.f1)
(7 rows)
