I think that's reasonable.

I think it'd be okay to move this one, too.  The parenthesized syntax has
been available since v14, and I suspect CLUSTER isn't terribly widely used,
anyway.  (Side note: it looks like "CLUSTER (VERBOSE)" doesn't work, which
seems weird to me.)

Most of these commands have an existing note about the deprecated syntax.
Could those be removed with this change?
