In the commit message of 0001, we have:
"""
Both JSON_VALUE() and JSON_QUERY() functions have options for
handling EMPTY and ERROR conditions, which can be used to specify
the behavior when no values are matched and when an error occurs
during evaluation, respectively.
All of these functions only operate on jsonb values. The workaround
for now is to cast the argument to jsonb.
"""
which is not clear for me why we introduce JSON_VALUE() function, is it
for handling EMPTY or ERROR conditions? I think the existing cast
workaround have a similar capacity?
Then I think if it is introduced as a performance improvement like [1],
then the test at [1] might be interesting. If this is the case, the
method in [1] can avoid the user to modify these queries for the using
the new function.
