Can this be because restart_lsn is not set to InvalidXLogRecPtr for the
physical slots? My repro is as follows:

select pg_create_physical_replication_slot('s5');
// Load some data to invalidate slot
postgres@pgvm:~$ /usr/local/pgsql/bin/pg_receivewal -S s5 -D .
pg_receivewal: error: unexpected termination of replication stream: ERROR:
 requested WAL segment 0000000100000000000000EB has already been removed
pg_receivewal: disconnected; waiting 5 seconds to try again
pg_receivewal: error: unexpected termination of replication stream: ERROR:

pg_receivewal: disconnected; waiting 5 seconds to try again
^Cpostgres@pgvm:~$ /usr/local/pgsql/bin/psql
psql (16devel)
Type "help" for help.
