pg_ctl exits quickly when a failure of CreateRestrictedProcess() happens, hence why does it matter to close these handles as an exit() should do the job as well?
Handles are a scarce Windows resource. The work of freeing these resources is not done by exit(), but by Windows itself, when possible. If applications are not good citizens, these resources will eventually run out.
