What do you mean with "appear to work"? Isn't, in 13, the only consequence of vac_strategy not being "propagated" that we'll not use a strategy in parallel workers? Presumably that was hard to notice because most people don't run manual VACUUM with cost limits turned on. And autovacuum doesn't use parallelism. Greetings, Andres Freund
