FWIW I think that it's a matter of how the standard is interpreted.
You expect something that Kyle Kingsbury called "Adya repeatable
read". This interpretation of RR allows an application which only
accesses records by primary key to get serializable execution.
Essentially, the primary key is special in a system that uses
traditional two-phase locking (or something closer to it than the
Postgres model). But a predicate on the PK is not special in Postgres.
