On second read of this comment: http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2009-05/msg01128.php it says "reduce the frequency of serialization anomalies", which doesn't necessarily mean that it makes new guarantees, I suppose. I should have gone to the original source. Anyway, it's a moot point, because apparently that's just a possible step along the way toward true serializability, and doesn't need to be separately distinguished.
