It might be worth adding this sentence to the 9.26.1 first paragraph:

"There are also SQL commands and a related view for managing settings. See
18.1 for additional information."

Or, after "it corresponds to [...] SHOW and SELECT * FROM pg_settings". The
set_config can also be stated to correspond to UPDATE pg_settings.

We end up being repetitive with section 18.1 but it is only a single
sentence and focused for someone looking at functions.
