Do I understand correctly that you are advocating *against* using
standard SQL syntax for a feature that is defined by the SQL Standard
and that we have no similar implementation for?

If so, I would like to stand up to it.  We are known as (at least one
of) the most conforming implementations and I hope we will continue to
be so.  I would rather we remove from rather than add to this page:
