Yes, they would have removed it because they didn't want it. As I
recall, part of the agreement to create an extra database by default was
that it could be removed if users didn't want it. Turning around and
then saying "but things won't work if it's not there" isn't exactly
supporting users who decide to remove it.
Regarding pg_dumpall and pg_restore, I'm pretty sure both of those can
be configured to connect to other databases instead, including for
globals.
Thanks,
