As you noticed, it doesn't actually scan them. I believe v11 "partition elimination during query execution" is coming into play here. There's no option to disable that, but as a quick test, you could possibly try under PG10 (note, that doesn't support inherited indexes). Or you could try to profile under PG12 (and consider comparing with pg13dev). You partitioned on hash(iot_data.device), but your query doesn't specify device, except that da.device=de.id AND de.name IN ('50'). If that's a typical query, maybe it'd work better to partition on metadata or lower(name) (or possibly both).
