I completely agree with you, unfortunately there are enough people who are so militant about their particular beliefs that they can make life very difficult for both the individual and the organisation they represents (cf eg Brendan Eich). If you are well known (outside of the community) as representing postgres then I'm afraid extreme opinions will reflect on postgres, whether you like it or not. On the flip side, I imagine that being that well-known brings positives (job offers, paid - or at least expenses-paid in nice locations - speaking engagements etc) in return.
