The core reason for the discrepancy is that the parser inserts
implicit coercion steps into your initial, not-very-consistently-typed
query; but the view-dumping logic (ruleutils.c) tends to display
those steps as explicit coercions.
Thanks for the clarification, it makes a whole lot of sense. And indeed,
when I type the SQL like so ARRAY[foo.bar::text, foo.baz::varchar::text]
the view definition does not change between runs.
Cheers,
