No, I don't think so. HS without SR means you still have to fool with
setting up WAL-file-based replication, which despite the existence of
pg_standby is a PITA. And you have to make a tradeoff of how often to
flush WAL files to the standby. To be a real candidate for "it just
works" replication, we've *got* to have SR.
