You really should define what you mean by "works" in a question
like this.

However, I think what you are unhappy about is that the interpretation
of that to_tsquery input has changed.  In v13:

regression=# select to_tsquery('simple', 'real,impact');
    to_tsquery
-------------------
 'real' & 'impact'
(1 row)

In v14 and later:

regression=# select to_tsquery('simple', 'real,impact');
     to_tsquery
---------------------
 'real' <-> 'impact'
(1 row)

The v14 release notes mention that there were incompatible changes in
this area, although they don't cite this specific case.  But anyway,
if the behavior you want is & then I'd suggest writing &, rather than
assuming that some other punctuation will behave the same.  Or you
could switch to plainto_tsquery(), which disregards the punctuation
altogether.
