Hello!

Does anybody know a reason parse_datestyle_internal always returns TRUE?

Ancient history.  Before GUC there were lots more routines and a lot
of control structure in variable.c; the return value of the parse/set
functions was used for something or other.  The stuff remaining in
variable.c isn't yet merged into the GUC mechanism ... but it should be.

It does not. However, if the code has not errored out on elog() calls
beforehand, the routine does return TRUE.
