Yes, that's not bringing the numbers higher with the simple cases I
reported previously, either.

Anyway, even if I cannot see such a high difference, I don't see how
to bring back the original numbers you are reporting without doing
more inlining and tying COERCE_SQL_SYNTAX more tightly within the
executor's portions for the FuncExprs, and there are the collation
assumptions as well.  Perhaps that's not the correct thing to do with
SQLValueFunction remaining around, but nothing can be done for v16, so
I am planning to just revert the change before beta1, and look at it
again later, from scratch.
