I think you might be missing the point. If you're using pg_dump and
pg_restore, you can pass --no-toast-compression if you want. But if
you're using pg_upgrade, and it's internally calling pg_dump
--binary-upgrade, then you don't have control over what options get
passed. So --no-toast-compression is just fine for people who are
dumping and restoring, but it's no help at all if you want to switch
TOAST compression methods while doing a pg_upgrade. However, what does
help with that is sticking with what Tom committed before rather than
changing to what he's proposing now.
If you like his current proposal, that's fine with me, as long as
we're on the same page about what happens if we adopt it.
