Description:       

                             List of roles
 Role name |                         Attributes
-----------+------------------------------------------------------------
 t1        | No inheritance
 test      | Superuser, Create role, Create DB, Replication, Bypass RLS


We changed the conceptual meaning of the inherit attribute but the psql output remained unchanged.  We probably should add the word “default” and make the positive case visible to reinforce this change in behavior of the attribute.
