Why not? You're basing your entire argument on a false premise (that
pl/pgsql is more powerful than SQL); I can provide specific examples of
why this is not the case, or refute any that you care to provide.
You can write trigger functions in plpgsql.
That doesn't make it more powerful, just that it has another feature.
Keep in mind that all internal functions that PostgreSQL includes are
called from SQL.
