Not unless it's locked down at initdb time. Otherwise flipping the
value bars you from using every existing index ... including those
on the system catalogs ... which were made with the other setting.
I put this in the same category as altering the identifier case-folding
rules. Yeah, it'd be great to be all things to all people, but the
implementation pain and risk of breakage of existing applications
isn't worth it.
