OK, I went with this text, stating WAL "generation" is skipped:
Allow skipping of WAL for full table writes if wal_level is 'minimal'
(Kyotaro Horiguchi)
Relations larger than wal_skip_threshold will have their files
fsync'ed rather than generating WAL. Previously this was done
only for COPY operations, but the implementation had a bug that
could cause data loss during crash recovery.
