The behavior is different for discrete vs. continuous ranges. For example, regression=# select int4range(1, 4, '[]'); int4range ----------- [1,5) (1 row) regression=# select numrange(1, 4, '[]'); numrange ---------- [1,4] (1 row) In the discrete case we normalize the bounds to '[)' style so that ranges that contain the same sets of values will compare as equal even when they were written differently. But there's no practical way to do that for continuous types.
