It's bad practice to concatenate like this. Use time + days * interval '1 day' and be done with it.

Why? Is this functionality expected to break in the future or has unexpected side effects? Is it less clear or less efficient? Who declared it bad practice and where can I read that documentation?

      choose an index scan if your joining column's datatypes do not
      match
