You have not posted any numbers to show if there's a difference in
performance, so I have run a simple test:
PREPARE test AS SELECT TIMESTAMP '1978-07-07 19:38' AT LOCAL;
DO $$ BEGIN
FOR i IN 1..1000000 LOOP
EXECUTE 'EXECUTE test';
END LOOP;
END $$;

On a medium-ish benchmark machine I have (16 vCPUs, 32GB of memory,
-O2, no asserts), this DO block takes in average 4.3s to run with v2,
versus 3.6s with v3. So yes, that's faster.

I haven't yet finished my review of the patch, still looking at it.
