Probably because the other tests avoid showing the owner, exactly because it varies depending on who runs the tests. Most of the "plus" commands aren't tested, at least in the sql regression tests.
Thanks for your patience. I didn’t think about it enough but everything you both said makes sense.
I’ve re-written the tests to create a test-specific role and functions so there is no longer a dependency on the superuser name. I pondered the notion of going with the flow and just leaving out the tests but that seemed like giving up too easily.
We should probably change one of the CI usernames to something other than "postgres" to catch the case that someone hardcodes "postgres".

Or better: see above about using it from your github account.
Yes, I will try to get this working before I try to make another contribution.
