Thank you so much for posting this test.

I got a seq scan on my local machine, so I checked the version... still running 
9.2.4.
I tried it on production (which is 9.3.x) and got the same result as you.

Looking at the 9.3 release notes, I'm guessing this behavior is from one of the 
Optimizer fixes.
