My point is that people are not really inclined to use an alias in
UPDATEs in general when referring to the target. The thing that seems
special (and worthy of special qualification) is the reference to what
you call the "incoming data", and what I've called "tuples proposed
for insertion" (after being affected by any before row triggers).
