I continue to marvel at how many people think that if it's not using an
index it must ipso facto be a bad plan ...
That plan looks perfectly fine to me. You could try forcing some other
choices by fooling with the planner enable switches (eg set
enable_seqscan = off) but I doubt you'll find much improvement. There
are too many rows being pulled from ordered_products to make an index
nestloop a good idea.
