The subselect is constraining the set of ID value(s) to be matched in
A, which (at least potentially) permits identifying the relevant
partition(s).
The join must include all partitions of A because the set of ID values
to be matched with B are not constrained.
Also, the join query is not equivalent because it does not include the
timestamp constraint on B. I don't think that will make any
difference to the query plan ... AFAICS, it still needs to consider
all partitions of A ... but it may improve performance.
