IIRC, "b = true" will be simplified to just "b" somewhere in expression
preprocessing. I'm betting that something in the partitioned index
matching code is applying that preprocessing to one index predicate and
not the other, whereupon they look different. If that's the explanation,
there are likely other cases that should match and fail to.
