"Also, it is not guaranteed that pg_dump's output can be loaded into a
server of an older major version — not even if the dump was taken from a
server of that version. Loading a dump file into an older server may
require manual editing of the dump file to remove syntax not understood
by the older server. "
Use the Postgres 12 version of pg_dump to dump if you want to restore to
Postgres 12 instance.

Did the above actually stop the restore?
