2) Checking row_count for a statement is ugly and cumbersome, so often it just isn't checked. I often use RETURNING TRUE INTO STRICT _OK for DML, but that a) requires an extra variable, and b) isn't possible if 0 rows affected is not an error in the application logic.
The b) part here wasn't exactly true; you could use RETURNING TRUE INTO OK as INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE with RETURNING .. INTO raises an exception if it returns more than one row, but it's even more convoluted than the RETURNING TRUE INTO STRICT _OK, and it's repetitive.
