... I suppose it's a bit of a poor excuse to make functional changes

Quite so. :)

Others expressed concern that it shouldn't background or accept
connections until everything is up.

And I agree with them.

We could certainly check if the socket is available first just to
fail early if needed, but not bind to it or accept connections until
after the database is loaded.

That would get my vote.
