I really think this is the wrong approach. If we start removing

of our users touch, half of them are on your "unsafe" list.
Reflecting on this a bit more, I'm curious what your list-of-15 is.
You can get a top 15-ish list from
https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Tuning_Your_PostgreSQL_Server
The list of things I see changed regularly that are on your unsafe list are:
listen_addresses, port, shared_buffers, log_directory, log_filename
Obvious missing thing from your unsafe list that is also changed
regularly is max_connection. I count 6 parameters that are both unsafe
and changed regularly.
