Distribution is one of those issues where an implementation has to be opinionated, and weigh out the pros and cons of each implementation. How do you handle partition events? How do you handle conflicts between two nodes, especially when resolving one conflict can generate other conflicts. How do you handle latency? How do you handle failover? Extensions like this are how Postgres has traditionally handled interesting opinionated technologies. The mailing lists will mull over the various implementations, scratch their chin a lot, and finally come to a conclusion after much discussion. It's why the database is so strong and stable, and why some seemingly obvious features take a while to get into the core database.
