I think we're trying to find a name for saying out aloud. Both "pg" and
"pgsql" are mostly used in writing.
I respect the idea of not renaming PostgreSQL to Postgres immediately,
just like I support the idea of eventually doing it. However, the idea
of dropping Postgres as a name/alias altogether seems blind and dumb.
Blind, because it ignores the fact that many people already use that
name. Dumb, because there is a lot of support (granted, not consensus)
for actually using it as the official name.
