Would these be easier to read by replacing the second regexp_match with just an array literal?

Yes good point, i made the changes for the others but kept this specific line:
SELECT true FROM t0 WHERE ((REGEXP_MATCH(t0.v1, t0.v1)) NOT LIKE (REGEXP_MATCH(t0.v1, t0.v1, 'jH')));
To just show replication of the query in the issue

Rationale for this change
Throw coercion error for LIKE adjacent operations. This matches DuckDB behaviour, just makes it clearer to users that nested types are not supported for this comparison.
Remove the list_coercion for LIKE comparisons
