PostgreSQL 14 will remove those hardcoded superuser checks.  Please
see this thread:
https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/capdie1xjmzokql3dghmurpqyszkgwzsmxetfkkhynbab7-0...@mail.gmail.com
And its related commit:

While the default is still superuser-only, it becomes possible to
grant access to this stuff to other roles that have no need to be
superusers.
