This is not a bug. The optimizer is allowed to push conditions down
into subqueries; many people would be exceedingly unhappy if it failed
to do that.
There is a workaround you can use if you need it to not work like that,
though: add an "OFFSET 0" to the subquery. LIMIT and OFFSET clauses
on subqueries serve as optimization fences, because the planner can't
push a WHERE condition down through one for fear of changing the set of
rows selected.
