How did you add this data? Given that the ids are out of order I assume you've
updated or deleted and re-inserted records a few times? That shouldn't break
anything but it's possible the insert on table a doesn't see the same version
of this table that you're looking at with the select.

Also, just to check that there's nothing wrong with the inex, what do you get
if you do:

enable_seqscan = off;
select * from reference where id = 7;
