This changes the game slightly from trying to get systems to come with

systems come with PostgreSQL "module" *packages* (rpms, debs, pkg, etc)
installed by default, and the DB owners can do the "PostgreSQL install"
part themselves.
Would this slight change of the game be of any value?
No. "packages" has another meaning in the database context.
I am going to point out AGAIN that we have already had a debate about
this subject, not that long ago, including the name by which we should
call these things. The consensus name then was "modules" and I think
that was right.
Those who do take cognizance of previous debates are doomed to repeat them.
