We should follow eg1. I checked few examples where we follow same
pattern as eg1:

Example-1: (See: "Tables from schemas")
 postgres=# \dRp+ pub1
                                                     Publication pub1
 Owner | All tables | All sequences | Inserts | Updates | Deletes |
Truncates | Generated columns | Via root | Description
-------+------------+---------------+---------+---------+---------+-----------+-------------------+----------+-------------
 amit  | f          | f             | t       | t       | t       | t
       | none              | f        |
Tables from schemas:
    "sch1"

Example-2: ((See: "No connections")
postgres=# create user u1 CONNECTION LIMIT 0;
CREATE ROLE
postgres=# \du u1
       List of roles
 Role name |   Attributes
-----------+----------------
 u1        | No connections
