Wouldn’t hurt but it’s not necessary, no. It’s set only for the execution of 
this file, and there are no more calls that rely on it.

It’s implicit in how PostgreSQL runs its test suite; other tests later change 
it.

I’m confused. There are no examples in my patch, or this bit you cite.

Are you referring to the tests? I made them comprehensive so that we reliably 
demonstrate the behavior of the string() method on all the date/time data 
types. They are not examples, not in the documentation sense at least.
