Clever, thanks!
I also realized that this "table to tuples" expansion works for GROUP BY too.
However, I'm not able to find this documented in GROUP BY, WHERE,
ORDER BY clauses sections into select documentation
<fgrouphttps://www.postgresql.org/docs/12/sql-select.html>. Could be
my fault, of course.
