Just from a quick check, it looks like you need INHERIT to inherit the ability to drop objects.  The documentation strongly implies this, although it doesn't quite come out and say it.


Are you referring to this:

The right to modify or destroy an object is inherent in being the object's owner, and cannot be granted or revoked in itself. (However, like all privileges, that right can be inherited by members of the owning role; see Section 22.3.)

https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/ddl-priv.html

It can be argued that is more than strong implication though a different more obvious (technical) wording could be in order.
