The point of the --with flags was to future proof commands to preserve
behavior in case the defaults ever changed.
This would all be a lot simpler, and the --with switches would all be
unnecessary, if we didn't decide to make exactly one type of dumpable
object (statistics) off by default but only in one of the three commands
(pg_dump).
I think we're creating lasting confusion for the sake of short-term
convenience.
