Closing since this is for an old version and the questions have been answered.

With 2.17 you will be able to delete along segmentby columns without decompression. This was added in #6882

As a workaround you can run manual `DROP TABLE` on those chunks. You can get a list of chunks matching arbitrary constraints like so: ```sven@name[252148]=# SELECT DISTINCT tableoid::regclass from metrics...

You can also do `DROP TABLE _timescaledb_internal _hyper_3_230_chunk;`

Have you looked at src/scanner.h could we reuse some of that functionality?

I think we probably want to still avoid arbitrary references to so files in the update script. We could have an update_place_holder dummy function that we use for this purpose...

This is superseded by https://github.com/timescale/timescaledb/pull/7202
