Immediately afterwards, in that same e-mail, I go on to say: "I'm not
asking about WHEN AND here (that was my last question) [Simon quoted
my last response to said question]. I'm asking about a subselect that
appears in the targetlist."
Even if you are right to take "I've acknowledged that the standard has
something to say on this that supports your position" as a blanket
endorsement of disallowing subselects in all 3 places, I still don't
see why this is worth even talking about. That would mean that I said
something on January 29th that I subsequently withdrew on February
1st.
