If I understand correctly, a table that has 4B+ rows cannot be restored after
the dump and that, in turn, may/will affect the ability to upgrade to new
versions of pgSql.

This is somewhat similar to saying "yes" to the question "Can I drive this car
at 55 mph?" and then forgetting to mention that the brakes will fail if the car
reaches 55 mph.

Thanks
