I don't have time to post that at the moment, but offhand I *think*
your confusion may be due to the fact that the json_hash_ops opclass
(as I call it) was previously consistent with the behavior of the
other GIN opclass (the default). The problem is that they (well, at
least the default GIN and GiST opclasses) were inconsistent with how
the containment operator behaved in respect of jsonb array elements
generally.
Here is the commit on our feature branch where I fixed the problem for
the default GIN opclass:
https://github.com/feodor/postgres/commit/6f5e4fe9fc34f9512919b1c8b6a54952ab288640s
If it doesn't explain the problem, you may still wish to comment on
the correctness of this fix. I am still waiting on feedback from Oleg
and Teodor.
