It might have something to do with the fact that the planner's idea of
the size of the table is off by a factor of more than 100:

You might need to review your vacuuming policy.

(However, a full table indexscan isn't going to be particularly fast in
any case; it's often the case that seqscan-and-sort is the right
decision.  I'm not sure this choice was wrong.)
