I'm not sure why. The bytea section already has an entry for its
length() function.
There are also length() functions for bit, character, lseg, path,
tsvector....
I don't really think of those as "a length() function" that works
on all those types. I think of a variety of types, many of which
offer a length() function.
That seems to be reflected in the way the docs are arranged.
