Insert into table collection type in table function without using explicit cursor in PL/SQL

I write the following code in PL/SQL and it works:

declare 
type deliveryStat_o IS record  (
       warehouseName varchar2(20), shipMode char(30), thirty_days number, sixty_days number,
        ninety_days number, oneTwenty_days number, veryLate number
   );
type deliveryStat_t is TABLE OF deliveryStat_o;

statTable deliveryStat_t;

begin

        SELECT w_warehouse_name, sm_type, 1 AS thirty_days, 1 AS sixty_days, 1 AS ninety_days, 
               1 AS oneTwenty_days, 1 AS veryLateDelivery
        bulk collect into statTable
        FROM   catalog_sales, warehouse, ship_mode, date_dim 
        WHERE   cs_ship_date_sk = d_date_sk 
               AND cs_warehouse_sk = w_warehouse_sk 
               AND cs_ship_mode_sk = sm_ship_mode_sk 
        GROUP  BY w_warehouse_name, 
                  sm_type ;
end;

How can I do this inside a table function that returns the nested collection statTable. I understand that this can probably be accomplished using explicit cursors; however, is it possible to do it without using a cursor?

For context, I'm starting with this as the base

SQL> set serverout on
SQL> declare
  2    type deliveryStat_o IS record  (
  3           empno number, ename varchar2(20)
  4       );
  5    type deliveryStat_t is TABLE OF deliveryStat_o;
  6
  7    statTable deliveryStat_t;
  8
  9  begin
 10
 11          SELECT empno, ename
 12          bulk collect into statTable
 13          FROM   emp;
 14    dbms_output.put_line('recs='||statTable.count);
 15  end;
 16  /
recs=14

PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.

To convert that to allow a table function, then those types need to be SQL types, hence

SQL> create or replace
  2  type deliveryStat_o as object (
  3  empno number, ename varchar2(20)
  4       );
  5  /

Type created.

SQL> create or replace
  2  type deliveryStat_t as table of deliveryStat_o
  3  /

Type created.

Now that this is done, the query must return a table of objects, so

SQL> set serverout on
SQL> declare
  2    statTable deliveryStat_t;
  3  begin
  4
  5          SELECT deliveryStat_o(empno, ename)
  6          bulk collect into statTable
  7          FROM   emp;
  8    dbms_output.put_line('recs='||statTable.count);
  9  end;
 10  /
recs=14

PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.

which can now be easily converted to a table function

SQL> create or replace
  2  function my_func return deliveryStat_t is
  3    statTable deliveryStat_t;
  4  begin
  5
  6          SELECT deliveryStat_o(empno, ename)
  7          bulk collect into statTable
  8          FROM   emp;
  9          return statTable;
 10  end;
 11  /

Function created.

SQL>  select * from my_func();

If you're returning a LOT of rows, then consider a pipelined function instead to avoid the memory overhead of collecting all the rows into the nested table
