You've set up psql just how you like it. Your editor, also
customized, your prompt, and it's even a pretty advanced version of psql with
lots of goodies. You've got more tools than psql, and some of them might be
proprietary and/or GUI tools. Ah, the joy of customization!
Now, you need to talk to somebody else's database. You could spend time
either adjusting to using their setup or installing yours. This prospect
fills you with dread, and time is of the essence.
