I'd already written: "If you need the test for status = 1, consider a
partial index" when I noticed your schema definition:

I find it hard to guess why it's having to recheck the WHERE clause
given the use of a partial index that should cover that nicely. I don't
see how it could be a visibility issue (in that I thought tuples were
read and tested for visibility as part of the initial heap scan) but I
don't see what else it could be.
It seems odd to me, so I'm really interested in seeing what others have
to say on this.
