I don't think this is an improvement, even ignoring the fact that
you've spelled a couple of words incorrectly. The original text seems
clear enough, and the new text isn't really fully accurate either: the
discussion of when the database name is ignored really shouldn't be
linked to whether this is logical or physical replication.
