Why can't we simply *remove* all this logic from subquery pushdown?

I would expect that what happens in useful cases is that we push down
the (safe) qual and then during planning of the subquery we see a WHERE
clause matching the window run condition and work with that.  So this
all seems redundant, quite aside from being faulty.
