Ok this is strange. Shouldn't it always be one or the other? Total row count for the table is 279,096.

doggies=# select count(*) from data where features_bin is null;
 count
--------
 279096
(1 row)

doggies=# select count(*) from data where features_bin is not null;
 count
--------
 279096
(1 row)


you inserted 278096 additional rows with (NULL, NULL, <somevalues>) to the 279096 existing rows that had (value,value,NULL)
