I have one idea that hopefully wont complicate you query but it could simplfy your query by
getting rid of the query nexting. Also, I haven't tested it.
Basically, Replace the
DISTINCT ON (t_inspect.inspect_id)
construct with
GROUP BY t_inspect.inspect_id
HAVING t_inspect_result.inspect_result_pass = 'f'
