Replying to myself with a clarification.
The other forms only move the filtering clauses around. There's still
only a filter on the outer group_id equaling the inner group_id and
a filter on group_id=3. It's just a question of whether it's:
Scan users in subselect from group_id=3, group and aggregate them
and join with users on subselect's group_id = users.group_id
or
Scan users for group_id=3, scan users in subselect, group and
aggregate them and join these two on subselect's
group_id=users.group_id.
The latter is effectively what your original query gave, the former
appears to be what my two queries from a couple of mails ago gives.
