The detail that jumps out at me is this one on jsonb_path_ops:

“Basically, each jsonb_path_ops index item is a hash of the value and the 
key(s) leading to it”

Because jsonb_path_ops indexes hashes, I would assume it would only support 
path equality. But it’s not clear to me from these docs that jsonb_ops also 
indexes hashes. Does it?

Best,
