Initially deferred constraint triggers with unnecessary locking

Query goal: Initially deferred constraint triggers do not need explicit statements for locking tables or rows.
Notes about the query: The Tr subquery has been created based on the subquery of INFORMATION_SCHEMA.triggers view. In the returned body of routine the query replaces each newline character with the line break (br) tag for the better readability in case the query result is displayed in a web browser.
Query type: Problem detection (Each row in the result could represent a flaw in the design)
Query reliability: Medium (Medium number of false-positive results)
Query license: MIT License
Fixing suggestion: Remove explicit locking (LOCK TABLE … or SELECT … FOR UPDATE) from the trigger function.
Data source: INFORMATION_SCHEMA+system catalog
