The latter. A session only absorbs ALTER ROLE SET settings for the
exact role you're logging in as. (Otherwise there would be a need
for a conflict resolution rule, and it's pretty hard to see how that
would work in general for arbitrary settings.) Role "inheritance"
applies to granted privileges only.
