avoiding PDF for all costs makes sense or not. Expressed in other words: what usually happens when one sends PDF to PostScript printer? Does it print the document almost-natively or not?

Typically your viewer (e.g. Adobe Reader) or your printing system (e.g. CUPS) converts it to PostScript.

http://www.csb.yale.edu/userguides/image/adobe.html Acrobat reader can be used as PDF-to-PS converter. With HP Postscript printer with Jetdirect interface I can send directly PS file to printer, via FTP protocol IIRC.
