This feature has me way more excited than I probably should be. Been splitting up relatively simple schema migrations into multiple steps for years now, and definitely welcoming this change.

Notably, that feature got written by somebody from Salesforce (I assume on their work time, but not sure), and finished up by a Postgres major contributor. It might be the first major contribution from Salesforce outside of all the stuff Tom Lane did when he was working there.

Not so. I worked on UPSERT for several years as a Salesforce employee, as well as quite a number of other things. I worked for Heroku, a Salesforce business unit, from 2013-2017.
