Correct. However, this seems to produce the issue less "reliably";
that is, it takes several hours of load testing for a duplicate PK to
show up, so I suspect that with pg_stat_statements alone it's also
timing issue. I'm still waiting on the results with
pg_stat_statements.so NOT loaded to confirm that we're not actually
getting two separate bugs with similar symptoms.

The second site does not have any increase in query size. Their only
settings for pg_s_s are:

pg_stat_statements.max = 10000
pg_stat_statements.track = all
