That would be true if there were no LIMIT.  But with the LIMIT, all this
means is that it stopped actually scanning after it found one row, but it
estimates that if it didn't stop it would have found 3885.  So it is not
very informative.  But the above plan appears incomplete, there should be a
line for "Rows Removed by Filter", and I think that that is what we really
want to see in this case.
