I am honestly stumped if anybody can figure something sensible out of the
original formatting of the query...
What happens if you change the
left join event.origin on event.id = origin.eventid
into
join event.origin on event.id = origin.eventid
?
The EXISTS() requires that origin is not null anyway. (Not sure why the
planner doesn't recognize that though).
