Yes, but the documentation states that EXECUTE permission for the function is required to even CREATE the operator. 

This what the doc says:

> To be able to create an operator, you must have USAGE privilege on the argument types and the return type, as well as EXECUTE privilege on the underlying function. If a commutator or negator operator is specified, you must own these operators.

Am I missing something obvious here?

Doesn't PUBLIC still have EXECUTE permissions on this function?
