Why would it need to?
Simply - due consistency with any other functions that can returns rows.
Maybe I don't understand to Alvaro proposal well - I have a XMLTABLE function - TableExpr that looks like SRF function, has similar behave - returns more rows, but should be significantly different implemented, and should to have different limits - should not be used there and there ... It is hard to see consistency there for me.
