Looking at the current wording, eg example message from 3 hours ago:

https://github.com/postgres/postgres/pull/41#issuecomment-502660775

The text now seems friendly enough, though it could do with a bit more
white space for readability:

Hmmm... that wall of text really could do with breaking up if possible.

Is that feasible?
