Description:

In page https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/indexes-bitmap-scans.html
написано следующее:
"Another example is that if we have separate indexes on x and y, one
possible implementation of a query like WHERE x = 5 AND y = 6 is to use
each
index with the appropriate query clause and then AND together the index
results to identify the result rows".

This is a correct and intended sentence. The paragraph for bitmap covers
both OR from the earlier example and AND from this example.

You mean "WHERE x = 5 OR y = 6"?

No; the query says AND. Unioning the index results would be
appropriate if it said OR, but that's a different topic.
