Well you command as constructed below will have no INSERTs(or UPDATES OR
DELETES). The data will be moved into the tables using COPY. Even if you
use --inserts(https://www.postgresql.org/docs/10/app-pgdump.html) that
is all you will get. Can you explain more what it is you are trying to
achieve or expect?
