Yes.


How about the following?

The main difference between the logical replication setup and
pg_createsubscriber is how they synchronize table data.
pg_createsubscriber doesn't copy the initial table data because it
uses the tables with their initial data on the target server. It only
does the synchronization phase, which ensures each table is brought up
to a synchronized state by applying changes using standard logical
replication.

I slightly modified your proposal in the attached patch.

Thoughts?
