Built-in replication cannot selectively replicate individual databases
6/10 MediumPostgreSQL's built-in replication replicates entire clusters with the same settings and priority, not individual databases. This forces teams to manage multiple separate clusters to control replication groups, significantly increasing management complexity and operational overhead.

Built-in replication can't replicate only some databases of a cluster; you have to replicate both my-critically-important-10MB-database and my-totally-unimportant-50GB-database with the same settings, same priority, etc. This is a usability challenge because it means people have to create and manage multiple clusters to control replication groups
