O.k. now this does make sense. This is my suggestion:

Remove this entire paragraph:

+The installer is designed to be a straightforward, fast way to get up
and running with
+PostgreSQL on Linux (Red Hat family Linux (including
CentOS/Fedora/Scientific/Oracle variants),
+Debian GNU/Linux and derivatives, Ubuntu Linux and derivatives, SuSE
and OpenSuSE) with
+the ability to deploy to user’s workstations, and various server
environments including
+bare metal, virtual environments, and public, private, and hybrid clouds.
+</p>

And change this line:

+This installer can run in graphical, command line, or silent install

to:

+This installer can run in graphical, command line, or silent install
including cloud-init automation.

This is true but this patch is unnecessarily redundant, which equates to
"fluff".
