Well, the subselect with thelimit going to return different results from run to run. Unless you add an ORDER BY there's no guaranteed order in which tuples are returned. So I don't think it's surprising that you're getting results that differ between runs.
While this is true, that's missing the point. This output, for example:
contains data from six different accounts, which should surely be impossible regardless of which three accounts the subquery returns.
The one in repro1 is also problematic, because it shows that 304873, 304875 and 304885 were all selected, but not all rows for those accounts were returned.
