If it were me, and someone proposed a model where two-way replication
was needed, I would tell them to rethink their model.  It's broken.

I would respectfully disagree that the requirement for two-way replication
indicates a broken design.

I agree with your disagreement. This design is present in lots of non-RDB systems - CVS, IMAP, PDA syncing, etc. It's clearly more complicated, but can be made to work, and has been many times. I don't see anything about databases in general, or Postgres specifically, that indicates it's a bad idea.
