Are you sure the extension pgtt would work in my case?
https://github.com/darold/pgtt#how-the-extension-really-works says:
"the first access to the table using a SELECT, UPDATE or DELETE statement will produce the creation of a temporary
table"
Well, my original point was: Creation of a temporary table is prohibited due to "security-restricted operation".
