What if the query in a poll is fired just before we get an error
"tap_sub ERROR: replication slot "tap_sub" is active for PID 16336"?
Won't at that stage both old and new walsender's are present, so the
query might return true. You can check that via debugger by stopping
just before this error occurs and then check pg_stat_replication view.
