Irrelevant

It's worse. Obviously. Now you have introduced a race condition that only appears at load. Don't do this.
Fail fast and fail often.

Mocking, within the presentation, is not compelling.

binary replication is maddening
There's no mention of community support around the logical replication. Statistically, nothing you look for will reference or confirm that the side feature added "years and years" ago, includes all the features from the binary form. Yes this is FUD-talk, but I'd be interested to know if Uber ran in to practical problems. When working with a complex software product, it's not uncommon for some less used product features to be broken, missing, or marked as "not going to fix" (e.g. Databricks, Silverlight) because they were less used and/or less important to the product aim.
This feels a lot like systemd debates (both in nomenclature and pragmatism).
