pg_stat_io says:

         * Some BackendTypes do not currently perform any IO in certain
         * IOContexts, and, while it may not be inherently incorrect for them to
         * do so, excluding those rows from the view makes the view easier to use.

        if (bktype == B_AUTOVAC_LAUNCHER && io_context == IOCONTEXT_VACUUM)
                return false;

        if ((bktype == B_AUTOVAC_WORKER || bktype == B_AUTOVAC_LAUNCHER) &&
                io_context == IOCONTEXT_BULKWRITE)
                return false;

What about these combinations?  Aren't these also "can't happen" ?

 relation      | bulkread   | autovacuum worker
 relation      | bulkread   | autovacuum launcher
 relation      | vacuum     | startup
