What did you read that lead you to think the above shoud work?

I don't know about COPY FROM, but COPY TO works without parens (or FORMAT), like this:

db=> copy (select 1+1, 2+2) to stdout with csv;
2,4

(tested on pg 9.5)

I never use parens, so I was surprised to see in the docs and the replies here that they are necessary. Am I just exploiting a bug in the parser?
