Logical replication emits logmessages like these:

DETAIL: 90 transactions need to finish.
DETAIL: 87 transactions need to finish.
DETAIL: 70 transactions need to finish.

Could we get rid of that 'need'? It strikes me as a bit off; something
that people would say but not a mechanical message by a computer. I
dislike it strongly.

I would prefer the line to be more terse:

DETAIL: 90 transactions to finish.

Am I the only one who is annoyed by this phrase?

Thanks,

Erik Rijkers
