This seems to be your problem right here: evaluating that subplan for
each row of t_entities is pretty expensive, and yet the planner's
estimating a total cost of only 1.49 to run the scan.  What PG version
is this?  AFAICT we've accounted for subplan costs in scan quals for
a long time, certainly since 7.4.  Can you put together a self-contained
test case for this?
