That's because you set "read_only" to "true" when you executed the query,
so that the command counter is not incremented, and the query cannot see
the results from the previous statement.
The documentation is quite clear here:
It is generally unwise to mix read-only and read-write commands within
a single function using SPI; that could result in very confusing behavior,
since the read-only queries would not see the results of any database
updates done by the read-write queries.
