Thanks for the discussion.

With a translator hat on, I would be happy if I could determine
whether a word requires translation with minimal background
information. In this case, a translator needs to know which values
wal_level can take. It's relatively easy in this case, but I'm not
sure if this is always the case. Therefore, I would be slightly
happier if "logical" were double-quoted.

regards.
