Yea, that could at least be addressed by adding comments. But even with a bunch of comments, it'd still be pretty hard to read once the events above have happened (and they seem kind of inevitable). I wonder if we can add a somewhat more general function for scanning until some characters are found using SIMD? There's plenty other places that could be useful. Greetings, Andres Freund
