Thanks!  This gives me enough information. I was essentially looking for something concrete to discuss for cases where someone even more novice than myself in query optimization points to issues after adding an index.

I have a tangential question that I am curious about more than it being helpful in building queries.

Is index information used to determine the input scan cost or is that determine through another mechanism or other metadata in the table?  I mean this for a simple case and not in an exhaustive general sense.  For example a table with an id and timestamp column with an index on the id and timestamp filtered by a date range.
