Checkout the documentation here:

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/ms178685(v=vs.140)#the-processmodel-element

It states:

Thus, processModel settings can be placed only in the Machine.config file, and they cannot be overridden by settings in any Web.config file.

Some of the settings you mentioned are part of this processModel and so cannot be modified via web.config.
