I've raised a question on the hackers list: https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/CAB%3DJe-HyOz00Ms6pMuOJoCig1eNDp1hpejMvqz%3Dg6M--hoxnKA%40mail...

>One would also consider that someone may want to only limit by byte size, and not by row count. For example, maybe you pass 0 rows to [Execute](https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/protocol-message-formats.html#PROTOCOL-MESSAGE-FORMATS-EXECU...) but then still request a byte size limit using the proposed mechanism - in this case, PG would fetch as many rows as possible that fit within the byte size limit.

I am afraid it might break the semantics: "execute 0" was supposed to fetch all the rows, and the application might assume extra fetches would not be required after "fetch all rows" execute. So I think it might be ok to keep "fetch all" intact.
