Yes you are absolutely correct. However my argument was more than that.
Right.
I was responding to the entire thread that was headed in the direction
of saying that just because a language doe not have a trusted PL
version, it should be removed.
As others have said, I find myself using PL/pgSQL when I need trusted,
and frequently use other languages when I need untrusted. And in most of
my experience, I don't even care if the language is trusted or
untrusted. There are plenty of use cases for both.
