For me, on either v14 or v15 that draws an informative warning:

WARNING: cast will be ignored because the target data type is a domain

and that makes it unsurprising that this fails:

=# select '2022-04-23 19:00:01 +5:30'::timestamptz::isodow;
ERROR: cannot cast type timestamp with time zone to isodow
LINE 1: select '2022-04-23 19:00:01 +5:30'::timestamptz::isodow;
^

I don't see any difference in behavior between v13, v14, v15
on this. The test case fails outright before v13, because
older versions wouldn't do the implied cast here:

=# create function testcast(in a timestamptz ,out isodow)
as $$ select extract(dow from a ) $$ language sql;
ERROR: return type mismatch in function declared to return isodow
DETAIL: Actual return type is double precision.
CONTEXT: SQL function "testcast"

but with that corrected, the warning appears at least back to v10.
