Help with an interesting Postgres question: Why isn't an Index Only Scan used on a partition accessed via the parent table?.

CREATE TABLE batch (
    batch_id serial NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,
    price    varchar(50) NOT NULL
);

CREATE TABLE poster (
  poster_id serial NOT NULL  PRIMARY KEY
, country   varchar(50) NOT NULL
, batch_id  int REFERENCES batch (batch_id)  -- not serial!
);

INSERT INTO batch (price) VALUES
  (10)
, (11)
;

INSERT INTO poster (country, batch_id) VALUES
  ('DEU', 1)
, ('DEU', 1)
, ('FRA', 1)
;
