You cannot alter stats_row_level unless you're a superuser (and I think
even that exception doesn't work for PGOPTIONS, because it's processed
before the backend has determined whether you are a superuser). You'd
get the same error if you tried
regression=> set STATS_ROW_LEVEL = on;
ERROR: 'stats_row_level': permission denied
