found a possible bug, modulus of an integer on a partition table appears to be wrong

The remainder of 4, 6, 8 mod 2 should be 0. Instead of inserting into t1_0, all values were inserted into t1_1

You are confusing "modulus of the column value" with "modulus of
the hash of the column value". The latter is what determines
tuple routing in a hash-partitioned table.
