I simply mean that the plan is substantially different, in that there
is an index scan node on 17 that uses a completely different index to
the corresponding index scan node on 15. While the plan looks almost
the same, this one detail is huge.
In other words, I disagree with your summary of the plan, when you
said "Explain plan of the two queries almost same, all the joins and
paths used are exactly same". The paths are not the same.
