I think so too. With your opinion added to mine, do we constitute a
consensus of the pg community? Someone might object that a sample of
two individuals is insufficiently representative of the whole, but
away with the pedants: let us not quibble over trifles.
I haven't completely followed this thread, but I think there has been
some discussion of making changes to inline that would cause
regressions for people using old, crappy compilers, and I think we
should avoid doing that unless there is some compelling benefit. I'm
not sure what that benefit would be - I don't think "cleaner code" is
enough.

Hmm, this sample of 3 has a lot of variance now.
When I referred to "consensus", perhaps that was optimism?
In fact I cannot disagree with Robert's comment.
