In most places, each of the Server Application documentation pages [1]

However, a few places called it 'directory' instead.
This patch changes the outliers also to 'datadir', making everything
more consistent.
The change looks good!
But I wonder if there isn't an issue with our XML. If you look at
initdb.sgml you will se that there is a space before datadir, but if you
look at e.g. pg_checksums you will then notice a lack of space, both in
the source and the generated HTML, so the space in initdb.sgml was
clearly added for a reason. Do you understand our documentation pipeline
good enough to know why that space seems to be necessary?
