While that is true, superuserdom consistently does not play any role in the
information schema for the purpose of figuring out what is accessible to a
certain user. This may be considered a bug, but it would also create
inconsistencies because the state "accessible to" is defined by other
information schema tables where superuserdom cannot be represented.
