My feeling is that SRFs in targetlists are just fundamentally poorly

Most of the real use-cases for them could be handled in a
better-defined, more standard way with LATERAL ... so what we ought
to be spending time on is getting LATERAL done, not worrying about
putting lipstick on tlist SRFs.

LATERAL would be useful for all sorts of reasons anyway.
