Yeah, when there are two ways to write a query that are logically
equivalent, it is better to put the AND at the higher level than
the OR. On the other hand, why not simply write it as?:
select *
from commons.financial_documents fd
where (fd.creation_time, fd.financial_document_id)
< ('2011-11-07 10:39:07.285022+08', 100)
order by fd.creation_time desc
limit 200
