I think you're right - I looked back at your earlier posts and you are mixing
up plpgsql and sql function syntax (easy enough to do).

BEGIN...END bracket the body of a plpgsql function, but control a transaction
in the SQL function. The BEGIN would have been ignored, the END would have
committed the current transaction.
