On [this

`spread` is mentioned:
-c {fast|spread}
--checkpoint={fast|spread}
Sets checkpoint mode to fast (immediate) or spread (the default) (see
Section 26.3.3).
But mentioned section 26.3.3 does not describe `spread` mode:
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/continuous-archiving.html#BACKUP-LOWLEVEL-BASE-BACKUP
It does, though it is phrased in terms of "fast => false" meaning "spread" whereas "fast => true" means "immediate".
But since the CLI wanted a label instead of true/false it had to call the default "not fast" mode something and it chose "spread".
Not saying this couldn't be made more clear/better but it is accurate and complete.
