But persistent data is so important that if your startup is so underfunded that you can’t setup a proper reliable data base, isn’t that a bigger issue? Why add the complication of Docker for production databases and why take the risk?

Well, I don't think named docker volumes are the way to go. They should map to disk and back up the native file system.

And/or automate a pgdump-type setup
