Seems accurate - and also I'm way too tired that I'd be mad ;)

It seems also to make sense from a behaviour POV to me: Imagine a
"smooth" planned failover with ASRO:
1) ASRO on primary
2) promote standby
3) edit primary config to include primary_conninfo, add standby.signal
4) restart "read only primary"
There's not really any spot in which it'd be useful to do disable ASRO,
right? But 4) should make the node a normal standby.
