Looking closer, there is a function defined by an extension. I'd have
to dig further to see if writes happen. The error is exactly what
we've been talking about:
2022-01-03 22:03:23 PST ERROR: database is not accepting commands to
avoid wraparound data loss in database "<redacted>"
2022-01-03 22:03:23 PST HINT: Stop the postmaster and vacuum that
database in single-user mode. You might also need to commit or roll
back old prepared transactions.
