Alright then, given we have multiple people asking about this- should we be considering adopting different language, even if we hadn't previously had such an initiative? I know that I tend towards primary/replica when discussing physical replication, and we do that quite a bit in the documentation (consider https://www.postgresql.org/docs/11/warm-standby.html where we seem to be pretty confused about if we want to talk about the system as a 'primary' or as a 'master'- but *clearly* primary is winning the war there). Even if we aren't avoiding the term for its negative connotations explicitly, having some consistency here strikes me as worthwhile. Thanks, Stephen
