I'm sorry I was unable to respond right away.

I think it would be sane to align the names with the FREEZE and BINARY options.

I agree with the name is too long and we once used the name 'ignore_errors'. However, current implementation does not ignore all errors but just data type error, so I renamed it.
There may be a better name, but I haven't come up with one.

Yes, you are right, I saw it.


As far as I take a quick look at on PostgreSQL source code, there're few variable name with "_counter". It seems to be used for function names.
Something like "ignored_errors_count" might be better.
I noticed that many variables are named with the "_counter" postfix, and most of them are used as a counter. For example, PgStat_StatTabEntry or JitInstrumentation structures consisted of many such variables. Despite this, I agree with your suggested name, because I found many similar variables that are used in the program as a counter, but it seems to me that the most of them are still used by local variables in the function.
