==Documentation==
There are at least two parts labeled with a Roman number I:
* http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.3/static/sql-commands.html I. SQL Commands
* http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.3/static/tutorial.html I. Tutorial

===I. Tutorial===
Those who set up and manage their own server should also read Part III.
Does one need to read "I" to find out that one needs to read "III" to manage an own server? If not, then isn't it superfluous is? And yes, it is in the http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.3/static/preface.html - redundancy bloats the documentation.

===1.4. Accessing a Database===
You already discovered this scheme in the previous section using createdb.
No. I did not.

===II. PostgreSQL Client Applications===
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.3/static/reference-client.html
This part contains reference information for PostgreSQL client applications
and utilities. Not all of these commands are of general utility;
These commands? The first sentence did not contain the word "command".
