Good.

Indicates you do something wrong then:-)

Ok,so you relay... not really "virtual domains" at all. This looks
more like a normal mail gateway than anything.

Good so far... minimal change to a percieved-as-working config:-).

Right, with that subject I  was expecting something along the lines of
http://www.postfix.org/VIRTUAL_README.html ... which detail how
virtual aliasing/mailbox settings work in PF.

But that doesn't seem to be what you are doing. You seem to be after
normal relaying (a thing I know work very well;-).
Do you rely on internal MX records ("split view DNS" kind of thing),
or the transport file? What do you have in it (the transport file, I
mean:-)?
