Sure I want a consistent database. Why doesn't?
But log shipping requires you to rsync/var/lib/pgsql/data to the remote server, and that's consistent, so why wouldn't rsync to a local directory also be consistent?
But it isn't consistent by itself. That is why the log shipping is required (or an equivalent method of keeping the necessary logs around), to fix up the consistency.
