Postgres primary key indexes are not primary indexes.

I know that, I’m saying that it’s a fairly pedantic argument when even their own docs use the term loosely.
Primary keys are primary indexes are two mostly unrelated terms.
"Primary Key" is the term in SQL standard. The url you linked is in "Part II: The SQL Language"
