You're trying to disable triggers associated with foreign key
constraints or CHECK constraints, too. You should probably skip those
system triggers in your function.

If you want to disable them too, I think you have to be the table owner,
or maybe superuser; I don't remember and haven tested. In any case, the
user you're running as doesn't have permission to disable those.
