That's the behavior since v15.  Contrary to you, the behavior of
specifying a table in pg_dump and pg_restore but not including a stats
definition makes more sense here.  The reasoning is that a stats
object may live on a different schema than the table it is defined on,
so you cannot guarantee that its schema has been created if you only
create a table on a schema.
