In the application, that I'm working on, I have a query that'll be a lot
60% faster if I disable sequential scan forcing it to you my index.

Is it bad practice to disable sequential scan ( set
enable_seqscan=false), run my query then enable sequential scan,
whenever I'm running this query?  Why?

Thanks in advance
