I like the latter. Riffing on that, we could collapse the bullet
points and reuse a bit of the current wording:
Recovery will abort and the server will not start up if any of the
following events occur: the command is terminated by a signal other
than SIGTERM (which is used as part of a database server shutdown);
the command returns an exit status greater than 125; or the shell
returns an error, such as "command not found".
WDYT?
