Hello,
According to patch[1] and after playing with v12 beta1 I think that this
item can be dropped from "5.11.3. Implementation Using Inheritance"
section of v12 docs:
"Some operations require a stronger lock when using declarative
partitioning than when using table inheritance. For example, adding or
removing a partition to or from a partitioned table requires taking an
ACCESS EXCLUSIVE lock on the parent table, whereas a SHARE UPDATE
EXCLUSIVE lock is enough in the case of regular inheritance."
Small patch attached.
[1] ATTACH/DETACH PARTITION CONCURRENTLY
