Why is this unexpected?
You only take the alternative path (UPDATE) in the event of a would-be
duplicate violation. You can't upsert while using more than one index
as an arbiter index. This is true unless they're more or less
equivalent, in which case multiple arbiter indexes can be inferred,
but that clearly doesn't apply here.
