Yes, replication slots can interrupt your primary.
Please define "interrupt". Using a replication slot, I thought files would just accumulate in pg_wal while the replica is down (or the network is slow, or the replica can't keep up with the primary).
Disaster, of course, when that disk fills up, but that's always been the case.
