> Similar to how JOIN FOREIGN would depend on the structure of the data model, defined by tables, foreign keys, etc.

The point that everyone is making is there are not currently any SQL statements that depend on structural information as defined in the foreign key relationships when calculating the structure of the data. Furthermore, there are already tons of tooling and processes that depend on this fact, that your proposal would break, for a teeny bit of less typing.

Beating a dead horse at this point.
