Answer 1

Indeed, hive.stats.fetch.partition.stats configuration property was removed in Jira HIVE-17932 as of Hive 3.0.0

Disabling the fetching of partition stats(hive.stats.fetch.partition.stats) may cause problematic cases to arise for partitioned tables...the user might just want to disable the cbo instead tweaking the fetching of partition stats.
