I guess the "more convenient" is where I'm confused, because the "grant
subscription_owner to table owner with set role true" is not likely to
be conveniently already present; it would need to be issued manually to
take advantage of this special case.

Do you have any concern about the weirdness where assigning the
subscription to a higher-privilege user Z would cause B's trigger to
fail?
