STABLE functions

Hello all, I saw that STABLE-defined functions
don't get replaced by their output, shoudn't they ?

Following shows that VOLATILE and STABLE functions outputs
won't get into the Filter, while IMMUTABLE will.

Documentation says that STABLE is the modifier to use for functions
which don't change output within a single query, isn't the shown one
a "single" query ?

Thanks in advance
