yes, this isn't clear. My arguments for change:

a) the behave depends on types - "any" is different than others.

b) optimization over fmgr doesn't work now.

b1. some possible const null and strict are ignored
b2. array is non const always - so pre eval doesn't work for variadic

c) it could be confusing, and it is partially confusing.

point c could be solved by notice in documentation. But a and b are
problem. The variadic funcall cannot be optimized :(
