But that seems like it wouldn't be too hard to fix: let's have

That's really what I wanted when updating the patch for tuple-routing to foreign partitions. (I don't understand the issue discussed here, though.)

That
seems pretty easy to do - just have expand_inherited_rtentry() notice
that it's got a partitioned table and call
RelationGetPartitionDispatchInfo() instead of find_all_inheritors() to
produce the list of OIDs.
Seems like a good idea.

Interesting idea.

If we are going to do this, I think we may need to modify
RelationGetPartitionDispatchInfo() a bit or invent an alternative that
does not do as much work.  Currently, it assumes that it's only ever
called by ExecSetupPartitionTupleRouting() and hence also generates
PartitionDispatchInfo objects for partitioned child tables.  We don't need
that if called from within the planner.

Actually, it seems that RelationGetPartitionDispatchInfo() is too coupled
with its usage within the executor, because there is this comment:

         /*
          * We keep the partitioned ones open until we're done using the
          * information being collected here (for example, see
          * ExecEndModifyTable).
          */

Yeah, we need some refactoring work.  Is anyone working on that?
