1) This is going to need some example data and the table definition.

2) The above query does not make sense.

3) Hstore does not store duplicate key values:

 From here:

https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/hstore.html#HSTORE-OPS-FUNCS

select 'a=>b, c=>d'::hstore || 'c=>x, d=>q'::hstore ;
            ?column?
------------------------------
  "a"=>"b", "c"=>"x", "d"=>"q"

Are there duplicated keys and if so how do you want to handle them?
