What's the penalty? Simon just said that there isn't one.
And there's a difference between saying that I "failed to make a case"
vs. "the cost is too great". Saying the former is saying that my
argument lacks merit (or content) entirely, rather than saying that it's
not sufficient. I made a case, the case just didn't persuade you ... yet.

If we have a single boolean GUC called "replication", I would be happy.Even if it defaulted to "off".
