Thanks for the review! I've pushed the patch.

BTW, this is a separate issue, but also related to the data checksums docs,
I found that the glossary entry for "Auxiliary process" includes
the data checksums worker and data checksums worker launcher.
However, their own glossary entries describe them as background workers,
and they are implemented as dynamic background workers.

This seems inconsistent. Other dynamic background workers, such as
logical replication apply workers, are not listed as auxiliary processes.
I don't see why the data checksums worker and launcher should be treated
differently.

Wouldn't it be better to remove the data checksums worker and data
checksums worker launcher from the "Auxiliary process" entry?
