Operators use schemas too. I cannot imagine any work with operators with the necessity of explicit schemas.
I thought operators are mostly installed in the public schema, in which case that wouldn't be a problem, or am I missing something here?
It is inconsistency - if I use schema for almost all, then can be strange to store operators just to public.
I don't agree. If an extension provides functionality that is supposed to be used by all parts of the system, then I think the 'public' schema is a good choice.
Using schemas only for the sake of separation, i.e. adding the schemas to the search_path, to make them implicitly available, is IMO an ugly hack, since if just wanting separation without fully-qualifying, then packaging the objects are separate extensions is much cleaner. That way you can easily see what objects are provided by each extension using \dx+.
