For most of them I agree, but one side effect of the current implementation is 
that we have a bug when pg_upgrad'ing if earthdistance is installed: 
https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/flat/
152106914669.1223.5104148605998271987%40wrigleys.postgresql.org

The new version of earthdistance fixes that problem, so this one would be worth 
a back patch to 16, giving users the opportunity to update earthdistance 
before running pg_upgrade.

Thanks for the tip about the CI, will make sure to have it setup before next 
time.
