Thanks for the comment! Isn't it better to keep "most recent" part?
If so, what about either of the followings?

1. <xref linkend="guc-wal-keep-size"/> megabytes of WAL files plus
     one WAL file that were most recently generated are kept all time.

2. <xref linkend="guc-wal-keep-size"/> megabytes + <xref linkend="guc-wal-segment-size"> bytes
     of WAL files that were most recently generated are kept all time.
