Why?

The "if (unlikely(result == 0 && key->scantid != NULL))" block is only
hit when we have an "exactly-equal" index tuple -- which means an
index tuple with a posting list covering a range of heap TIDs that our
scantid is covered by. There should be at most one index tuple like
this on any leaf page -- otherwise the index is corrupt.

The hardening that I added for the posting list split stuff was added
to 13.4 and 13.5. You're running a very old point release (13.2), so
you weren't running a version of the server with that hardening.
