The PK does provide a unique index.
It may be worth adding and index on
id where ( upper as_of_date = infinity )
for faster searches of current id's (assuming, of course, that there
is an infinite value for upper of as_of_date).
You will also need a PK if the table is used in foreign key
constraints -- the other table has to ref this table's PK.
