If you mean the example
prepare fish AS SELECT del.id , del.received_timestamp FROM delivery del
WHERE 1= 1 AND del.fts_all @@ to_tsquery('simple', $1) AND
del.folder_id = $2 ORDER BY del.received_timestamp DESC LIMIT 101 OFFSET 0;
you didn't provide any type for the parameter $2, so the parser had to
infer a type, and the applicable heuristic here is "same type that's on
the other side of the operator". So you ended up with "bigint = bigint"
which is in the btree_gin operator class. If you'd specified the
parameter's type as integer, it would've worked the same as Evgeniy's
example.
