when is RLS policy applied - Mailing list pgsql-general

I'm trying to understand when RLS select policy is applied so I created the follow to test but I don't understand why the query filter order is different for the 2 queries can anyone explain? 

CREATE TABLE t_service (service_type text, service text);

INSERT INTO t_service VALUES
    ('open_source', 'PostgreSQL consulting'),
    ('open_source', 'PostgreSQL training'),
    ('open_source', 'PostgreSQL 24x7 support'),
    ('closed_source', 'Oracle tuning'),
    ('closed_source', 'Oracle license management'),
    ('closed_source', 'IBM DB2 training');

GRANT ALL ON SCHEMA PUBLIC TO bob;

GRANT ALL ON TABLE t_service TO bob;

CREATE FUNCTION debug_me(text) RETURNS boolean AS
$$
BEGIN
    RAISE NOTICE 'called as session_user=%, current_user=% for "%" ',
        session_user, current_user, $1;
    RETURN true;
END;
$$ LANGUAGE 'plpgsql';

GRANT ALL ON FUNCTION debug_me TO bob;

ALTER TABLE t_service ENABLE ROW LEVEL SECURITY;

CREATE POLICY bob_pol ON t_service
    FOR SELECT
    TO bob
    USING (debug_me(service));

SET ROLE bob;

explain analyze select * from t_service where service like 'Oracle%';
