Yes, it seems that it is because timestamp operations return '29 days':

=# SELECT timestamp '2016-01-31' +interval '1 month' -timestamp '2016-01-31';?column?
----------29 days

You can also try the following, maybe it is appropriate for you:

=# SELECT timestamp '2016-01-31' -timestamp '2016-01-31' +interval '1 month';?column?
----------1 mon

=# SELECT extract( month from justify_days( timestamp '2016-01-31' 
-timestamp '2016-01-31' +interval '1 month') );date_part
-----------        1
