I've realized this, I think stripping those values out of the String wrapping is the wrong direction to go in, because it leads to more contortions rather than less.
I also agree with you. I couldn't explain it well so I thought of doing the changes.
Please find the attached patch which introduces a new static function to convert
text array to string list instead of making textarray_to_stringlist() non-static.

OK, now I understand what you meant when you mentioned CreateSubscriptionStmt: the problem is that the same code is being used for the purposes of processing the subscription lists of both Subscription and SubscriptionStmt. I think this whole code is a bit ugly TBH -- not yours, but what was there before -- but now that I've realized this, I think stripping those values out of the String wrapping is the wrong direction to go in, because it leads to more contortions rather than less.
