Restarts are much more disruptive that reloads, because the entire
active queue moves back to the incoming queue, client connections are
closed abruptly, ...  It is not clear why k8s makes that a non-issue.

But this is not a good way to routinely update some tables in a running
Postix.

Postfix does not need to be reloaded or restarted when certificates
change, the processes that use the certificate files are ephemeral, age
out, and their replacements will read the latest certificate files.  If
you're using SNI, with an indexed DB backend, then of course (as with
other tables), you'll need to rebuild those, again does not require
either a reload or restart.
