Sure, I'll optimize it.

IBM DB2 does use TRIM_ARRAY for the name, no? I believe it's the standard.

I think we could avoid deconstruct_array() in some spaces,
but cannot avoid detoasting.

They are full-reserved keywords in the spec, but I'd like not to
reserve them until we can do nothing but do so.
To be honest, I cannot fix shift/reduce errors in an optional OF
in the syntax even if I marked those variables as reserved keywords.
Can I ask for your help about the usage of bison/flex for such case?
