imho:   you have to  re-check the new improvements[1] :
some examples:
* "Declarative table partitioning"   (  as I know,  you can't see all information from psql9.6 ) 
* "Stronger password authentication based on SCRAM-SHA-256"   ( if the security is the first priority )
scram-sha-256
The method scram-sha-256performs SCRAM-SHA-256 authentication, as described in RFC 7677. It is a challenge-response scheme that prevents password sniffing on untrusted connections and supports storing passwords on the server in a cryptographically hashed form that is thought to be secure.
This is the most secure of the currently provided methods, but it is not supported by older client libraries.
* changes in sequences  (  "a new pg_sequence system catalog" ; "The output of psql's \d command for a sequence has been redesigned, too."   )
* changes in "psql"  Client Application
