Your memory is failing you maybe you don't remember not too long ago when PG did not have any replications built-in.

Not too long ago MySQL didn't have transactions.

Edit: I would just love a comment from the person who thinks 'missing feature in the past' is wrong, unfair or irrelevant as a reply to a 'missing feature in the past' comment.

There's a non-trivial nine-year difference between the things you're describing: the InnoDB storage engine was released in 2001. Postgres gained built-in replication in 2010.

That said, personally I wouldn't describe either of these as "not too long ago". Technology rapidly changes and many things from either 2001 or 2010 are considered rather old.
