Why not Cassandra or MongoDB with absolute consistency as event store?

I’m not actually looking to optimize my EventStore solution, just make it distributed so that database nodes can fail without interrupting service.

Sure, I gotcha there. Optimize wasn’t the right word for the problem.
Anyhow, I figured knowing the requirements of an Event Store would help to deduce what’s required from PostgreSQL specifically.

As stated earlier, I am not a PostgreSQL expert, so I’d leave the specifics on that to others here if you feel PostgreSQL is the way to go for your Event Store.
