Re: BUG #16158: Check constraints using SQL functions work incorrectly

This is not a bug; you've ignored the restriction that check constraints
must be immutable.  See the "Notes" at the bottom of this section:

https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/ddl-constraints.html#DDL-CONSTRAINTS-CHECK-CONSTRAINTS

In the particular case at hand, I think the behavior you're complaining
about stems from the fact that the CHECK condition is evaluated before
the actual row insertion has happened.
