  14     PostgreSQL 13 and below used the term <quote>Default Roles</quote>.  However, as these
  15     roles are not able to actually be changed and are installed as part of the
  16     system at initialization time, the more appropriate term to use is <quote>Predefined Roles</quote>.
  17     See <xref linkend="predefined-roles"/> for current documentation regarding
  18     Predefined Roles, and <link linkend="release-prior">the release notes for
  19     PostgreSQL 14</link> for details on this change.
