From the point of view of the code, this would simplify the grammar rules of SELECT, which is a good thing. And this would also simplify some code in the rewriter where we create some CreateTableAsStmt on-the-fly where an IntoClause is specified, but my take is that this is not really a burden when it comes to long-term maintenance. And the git history tells, at least it seems to me so, that this is not manipulated much. -- Michael
