I am getting a little confused in casting 'infinity'.
It seems that 'infinity' still can't be casted to a date. :-(
But I tried the following casts, but I am not sure the results are consistent.
instrumentation=> SELECT 'infinity'::date;
ERROR: invalid input syntax for type date: "infinity"
instrumentation=> SELECT 'infinity'::timestamptz;
timestamptz
-------------
infinity
(1 row)
instrumentation=> SELECT 'infinity'::timestamptz::date;
date
------
<-- this blank I determine was a NULL.
(1 row)
Is this correct? Shouldn't it also return an error?
