Ok. maybe you are in a rush.
But I would keep the thread open, to understand what I am not understanding or else, it'll become a habit of converting sql to plpgsql :)
Big Guys,
It seems, when the table is partitioned by range, it makes use of a nested loop which helps in partition pruning.
if the table is list partitioned, it scans all the partitions.
Is this expected ?

Thats quite ok. I think my plan now is to have a table returning function that executes a query dynamically. The query has a where caluse that is first constructed.
Like this:
return query execute format('select d.x, d.y from %1$I.%1$I d where d.period_version = any(' || quote_literal(_periode_version_array) ||'::text[])', register_in);
