The docs say that by default replica identity is primary_key [1] (see REPLICA IDENTITY), [2] (see pg_class.relreplident). So, using the same format to display PK seems reasonable. I don't think adding additional code to distinguish these two cases in the LOG message is worth it. We can always change such things later if that is what users and or others prefer.
