That's always been possible, but it happens in more cases now. We made an effort to not tie operators to opclasses unless they are essential to the opclass. The exact rules are index AM dependent, and I don't think they're documented outside of code comments. So if you really want to know, have a look at [1], as well as the mailing list thread about it [2]. > How can I find relations between operators from pg_amop and classes of > operators from pg_opclass in v14.0? It's kind of a mistake to assume that there is any such relationship. Operators are really tied to opfamilies, and have been for many years --- and those relationships are in pg_amop, you needn't grovel around in pg_depend to find them. The only reason to tie an operator to a specific opclass is if a particular index would necessarily not work without that operator. The new code reduces the number of cases where we think an operator is essential to an opclass when it is not really. regards, tom lane [1] https://git.postgresql.org/gitweb/?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=9f9682783 [2] https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/flat/4578.1565195302%40sss.pgh.pa.us
