PostgreSQL isn't superior to other solutions (in this case MySQL) for all purposes, but it's superior for enough purposes to make it a smart recommendation to those looking for alternatives to MySQL. I've used them both for roughly the same amount of time to varying degrees (5 years or so each) and since switching I've never used MySQL, except where required (hello, Wordpress).
