I like your point of view, you are right. We are considering to focus on promote the new speed improvements, but we need to clarify that pg is still robust and secure.
Faster, secure, Robust and postgres.
I do agree we don't want to lose sight of the "secure" aspect of PostgreSQL. One of the more convincing arguments I've made for using PostgreSQL in business cases is its adherence to data integrity. So it would become:
Fast. Powerful. Secure. PostgreSQL.
But it would be nice to get it down to two adjectives. Maybe:
Powerful. Secure. PostgreSQL.
It's almost like the classic "speed, quality, cost: choose 2" problem :-)
