Because the planner determined that the cost of scanning *two* indexes
and combining the results is more expensive than scanning one index
and filtering the results afterwards.

Looks like your query could use a composite index on both columns:
(deleted, setype)
Or a partial index:  (setype) WHERE deleted=0
