I am curious as to why in rhel 8 that postgresql module needs to be disabled. As rhel does not support postgresql16 and that the competing repos came from when running a yum update, but by disabling postgresql module it eliminated the competing repo. Why would this be if there is not postgresql16 module on rhel 8?

That is for safety reasons.  Perhaps it cannot happen with v16, but in general
it is a bad idea to install PGDG packages and Redhat packages side by side.
They are configured differently, and if you mix, you get interesting and
hard-to-debug problems.

If you don't disable the postgresql-module, none of the server
packages from yum.postgresql.org are visible on RHEL8 (rocky 8 actually):

$ sudo yum search postgresql server
======================================================== Name & Summary Matched: server, postgresql =========================================================
postgresql-server.x86_64 : The programs needed to create and run a PostgreSQL server
postgresql-server-devel.x86_64 : PostgreSQL development header files and libraries

$ sudo dnf module disable postgresql

$ sudo yum search postgresql server
======================================================== Name & Summary Matched: server, postgresql =========================================================
postgresql12-server.x86_64 : The programs needed to create and run a PostgreSQL server
postgresql13-server.x86_64 : The programs needed to create and run a PostgreSQL server
postgresql14-server.x86_64 : The programs needed to create and run a PostgreSQL server
postgresql15-server.x86_64 : The programs needed to create and run a PostgreSQL server
postgresql16-server.x86_64 : The programs needed to create and run a PostgreSQL server
