I guess you are better off asking this to an Oracle forum or to Oracle
itself (or consultants).

Here I am sure you can find a lot of people (including myself) who are
really eager to talk about the inverse process and who are specialised
with that. We - for instance - manage Oracle to vanilla PostgreSQL
migrations with semi-automated tools able to convert PLSQL functions,
but not the other way around. Sorry. :(

Just for the record and to understand if this is due to PostgreSQL
limitations, are you in a position to give us technical/product reasons
for this decision?

Cheers,
Gabriele
