I was wrong assuming the inversion of the "<@" operator.

This does not seem to be the case. In the following example, the same query
returns false whether there is a NOT operator or not.

SELECT (testcolumn->'ID' <@ '["2"]') FROM "TestJsonb" --Returns false (as
expected)
SELECT NOT(testcolumn->'ID' <@ '["2"]') FROM "TestJsonb" --Returns false
(*not as expected*)

To be noted that outside of the context of a table, this works fine:

SELECT ('"1"'::jsonb <@ '["2"]') --Returns false (as expected)
SELECT NOT('"1"'::jsonb <@ '["2"]') --Returns true (as expected)

I am confused
