I think you found the right places to touch, but is "let the autovacuum
daemon do it" sufficient?  It seems like that needs some qualifiers
about whether autovacuum is enabled, how long you should expect to wait
for the stats to get updated, etc.  It's probably not a good idea to
duplicate all that in each place, but maybe a link to the main
documentation about autovacuum is reasonable in each place.
