But...

And given PQsendQueryParams should not be different from
PQsendQuery (aside of parameters sending) why shouldn't it close
its portal immediately, like it happens in exec_simple_query ?

I really doubt user of PQsendQueryPrepared is aware of portal as
well since it is also unnamed and also exhausted (because
PQsendQueryGuts always sends "send me all rows" limit).

And why PQsendQueryInternal should behave differently in pipelined
and not pipelined mode? It closes portal in not pipelined mode,
and will not close portal of last query in pipelined mode (inside
of transaction).

Perhaps because query is simple and portal is created as seek-able?
