I do not see why this existing example isn't sufficient:
... An example of this is that in
WITH t AS (
UPDATE products SET price = price * 1.05
RETURNING *
)
SELECT * FROM products;
the outer SELECT would return the original prices before the action of
the UPDATE, ...
Yeah, it lacks a JOIN and it's an UPDATE not an INSERT. But we can't
provide an example to precisely match every possible mistake. As
