I'd say "moderately useful" at best. Quite a number of things could
make the creation dates misleading or not distinctive (think partition
replacement, restore from pg_dump, replicas, etc.). ALTER dates would
be more useful, but as Tom points out, would need the
user-configurability which can only be delivered by something like event
triggers.
