In evaluating the proposed change to wal_level docs in [1] I found it to

While I am not happy with the text before I am not sure your changes
here really make it much better, just different, hmm.
Since effective_wal_level now exists, Logical Replication Getting
Started needs to be updated.
Add links to the main topics that the different levels apply to.
Be explicit about the ordering of minimal, replica, and logical.
Move the behavior of effective_wal_level to the GUC for it, leaving
behind just the pointer that wal_level is now just a "minimum".
Shouldn't it be:
"Ensure that <xref linkend="guc-wal-level"/> is at least replica"
and
"wal_level = replica"
as the logical replication slot may be created later?
