At least in this example, the query appears to be fully cached and so
you would need a random_page_cost near 1 to reflect the system's

parameters is a much better idea than fooling with the enable_
parameters.

There is no particularly good reason to think this is a bug; please
take it up on pgsql-performance if you have more questions.
