I'd say "unique constraint violation" right here (provided there's a unique constraint on this column, of course). The order in which these are inserted/updated doesn't seem to matter either. I'm afraid I'm still missing the point...

The point is that btree depends on a number of assumptions about the
behavior of the operators in an operator class, and one of those
assumptions is that "equality" is transitive.

So, referring back to your example you mean that though B overlaps A, and C overlaps B, C doesn't overlap A and thus they're not transitive.
I see.
