what is it redundant with?

hmm, IIUC, what you are describing is flag that will be limited to
only check if an option can be used with EXPLAIN_ONLY, ANALYZE_ONLY
or both. But what about if I have a case to check against between other
extension options? let's say ExtensionAOptionA and ExtensionAoptionB.
How would that work with the way you are suggesting?
