Unfortunately, this is not true. You need to grab all the DB files (WAL, etc.) in a consistent manner. You can't grab them while writes are in progress. There are ways though. Look at what Kanister does with its recipes to get consistent DB snapshots to get a sense of the complexities need to do it "right."

Perhaps you could be more specific, because the former is exactly what a filesystem snapshot is meant to do, and the latter is exactly what an ACID database is meant to allow assuming the former.

I looked at a few examples and they mostly seemed to involve running the usual database dump commands.
