prototype standby working next week in the first place, we'll be discussing
those very merits.
A 2nd question: Is it possible to have 2 standby servers with a single
master duplicating to standby1 (at my coloc), and standby2 (at my office)?
Assume no auto-failover.

I am not so sure of this arrangement's mertis
From HA (High Availability) point of view, the host/server is a single point
of failure which will bring your entire infrastructure down if any of the
server hardware components fail.
From Performance point of view, you have increased the load on your server
by 3 folds as all instances would be using your I/O bandwidth to write to
secondary storage
Given $300 to $400 price of headless servers these days, its much economical
to split the workload on three boxes

Yes, that will work.
