If you turn WAL logging off (via fsynch parameter in .conf), it is my understanding that you will no longer log database updates, and will therefore not be able to recover any uncommitted transactions in the event of failure, (which seems contradictory to database practice).

You can not turn of WAL logging. You can only delay how the data is written to disk.
