Can you clarify why you think that's the case? pg_stat_statements certainly does need to be included in shared_preload_libraries, or it will emit an error noting its not loaded: ERROR: pg_stat_statements must be loaded via "shared_preload_libraries" The only exception to that is if you're in an environment where the provider has already included it in the default configuration, e.g. on Amazon RDS - but that is not the case with the regular Postgres packages to my knowledge.
