In fact, I'll go one step further and say that pg improves so much
from release to release that everyone should make superhuman efforts
to always be running the latest stable release.
Even the differences between 8.1.x and 8.2.x are worth it.
(and the fewer and more modern the releases "out in the wild", the
easier community support is)
