I know that I tend towards primary/replica when discussing physical

https://www.postgresql.org/docs/11/warm-standby.html where we seem to be

or as a 'master'- but *clearly* primary is winning the war there).

It has the advantage of being accurate and with significantly less social baggage. 

I support a search and replace.
