Having a HA follower is the only different between Premium and Standard tiers, so I'm not really sure what else you expected them to do in this case. Like, premium-6 is 2x the cost of the standard-6 plan explicitly because of the HA follower.

Yes. I was inexperienced, saw "high availability," and didn't realize the standby could fall behind and lose data.

Also, it's worded like a strict improvement when really it's a tradeoff. You're sacrificing the guarantee of persistence for more availability. I feel like most people who know what this means are not going to want it.
