I think that's because the nuance isn't actually in the text - note that
it is talking about max_wal_senders and talking about connections
*from*, not *to* standby servers.
I've reformulated the wal_level paragraph and used "or higher" in
several places now.

Ok, so here's a rebased version of this. I tried to fix all the issues
you mentioned, and it's based on the split off IsSystemRelation() patch,
I've sent yesterday (included here).
