I don't really see anything wrong here. Yeah, you broke insertions
into the view yet it still claims to be updatable. But there is
nothing about the view that makes it not-updatable; it's something
that happens at runtime in the base table that is problematic.
If we try to detect all such cases we'll be solving the halting
problem. That is, I don't see any functional difference between
this example and, say, a default value attached to the view that
violates a CHECK constraint of the base table.
