Uhmmm... So, if there's no join or where clause, the index is not used at all?

Somehow, I thought that internally ST_union would still use it to decide which geometries need be merged together in the same part.

Thanks for clarifying.

That will make no difference, the query is reading the whole contents
of the column, a spatial index will do nothing.
