Even though there were 0 rows associated with the table's oid in
pg_depend and pg_triggers ?

Should this not be my indicator of the reltriggers count?

For completeness, I ran a script we have which runs a bunch of alter
tables, so that the schema returns to its natural state.  I believe that
this should fix any missing triggers, once the redundant trigger had been
removed.  Would you agree?

Thanks,
