I figure the index non-use issue is due to collate and/or ctype, so I:
  initdb --locale=C --lc-collate=C
and indexes are now being used as expected.

Did I address it in the best manner?

Yes, I think so.

Did I overlook anything that should have been obvious?

Not that I know of

Should a new windows postgres user be expected to spot this and address it?

It is not specifically a Windows issue - it has bitten me on Unix. And it is mentioned in the FAQ iirc.

cheers
