OTOH I thought "additionally stored" made it seem like those states
were in the catalog and "additionally" in shared memory.

Maybe better to rewrite it more drastically?

e.g
-----
* The catalog pg_subscription_rel is used to keep information about
* subscribed tables and their state. The catalog holds all states
* except SYNCWAIT and CATCHUP which are only in shared memory.
