I think you're confusing the point with a secondary issue, which is
what
access we provide to these pseudotypes in PLs. To write sprintf in a
PL, you'd at least need the ability to cast "any" to text. I guess
you
can do that with anyelement, though, so maybe there is nothing much
here
except an overly restrictive safety check.
Yes, exactly.
