We tried running the prepared statement six times as suggested but wasn't still able to recreate the original problem.

Perhaps more concerning/relevant is that we have not found any explanation to why the explain plan is not being logged by `auto_explain`. Could this be a bug? Shall we report it?

I should have also mentioned to try the EXPLAIN EXECUTE six times and
see if the last one produces a different plan.  That's when it switches
from planning every time to planning with generic arguments, as I
recall.

That wasn't advice actually, just a note that the code might be doing
that thing wrong, causing auto_explain to miss it.  This is an unproven
hypothesis that is likely to be all wrong.
