PostgreSQL allows almost any keyword (SELECT, ANALYZE, LATERAL, AND, OR, COLLATE, ...) to be used as a bare (AS-less) column alias unless it is in a small set of keywords that require a leading AS. See https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/sql-keywords-appendix.html Previously: SELECT (SELECT c FROM tbl_name LIMIT 1) select; failed to parse.
