Query plan for "id IS NULL" on PK

Hello,

Long time listener, first time caller.

We have a large table (~470 million rows) with integer primary key id (not
null) on a Postgres 14.5 cluster. A third-party tool is attempting to
perform a SELECT-based full table copy in preparation for log-based sync
with a query like the following:

SELECT "id", "other_column_a", "other_column_b", "created_at", "updated_at"
FROM "public"."my_large_table"
WHERE (("id" > ? OR "id" IS NULL)) AND (("id" <= ?))
ORDER BY "id" LIMIT 50000;

The lower bound increments by batch size (50k) while the upper bound is
always the `max(id)`, in our case around 575,000,000.

The query plan produced is very slow as the index condition does basically
nothing:

QUERY PLAN

time=1708920.675..1709198.995 rows=50000 loops=1)
-> Index Scan using my_large_table_pkey on
my_large_table (cost=0.57..135230792.97 rows=308733624 width=417) (actual
time=1708920.673..1709195.926 rows=50000 loops=1)
Index Cond: (id <= 575187488)
Filter: ((id > 193208795) OR (id IS NULL))
Rows Removed by Filter: 157784540
Planning Time: 0.186 ms
Execution Time: 1709200.618 ms
(7 rows)
Time: 1709231.721 ms (28:29.232)

We cannot change the query being executed. Is there any way we can make the
query planner ignore `OR (id IS NULL)` (as that will never be the case for
the PK) and use both `id` clauses in the index condition?

We have provided the vendor with the same query without the `id is null`
showing that it's significantly faster (see below). They have informed us
that addressing the null check on a not null PK is on their roadmap to
address but no timeline.

SELECT "id", "other_column_a", "other_column_b", "created_at", "updated_at"
FROM "public"."my_large_table"
WHERE (("id" > ?)) AND (("id" <= ?))
ORDER BY "id" LIMIT 50000;

We have tried leading the planner to water with this view but it did not
change the slow query plan:

create view my_fast_large_table as
select *
from my_large_table
where id is not null;

Any other tricks to try here?

Thank you,
