If you click through the links in TFA, the three people pushing this feature all work for Enterprise DB (EDB?)

Okay, but EDB is the largest corporate contributor to Postgres, and one of the people pushing against the feature (Bruce Momjian) also works for EDB?

The PG community is a lot of things, but I think “dominated by commercial interests” is not one of them.

Disclosure: I work at EDB :)

I wanted to clarify that I (Jelte, the author of the final patch) work at Microsoft. So, it's definitely not just one company seeing benefit in this feature. Arguably Microsoft is a cloud company too though, but honestly most of the active contributors to PostgreSQL work at a "cloud company".

Fair points!
