Not quite.  You are not setting the ownertrust value for all users but
for yourself, as a person.  The ownertrust value is about how much you,
as a person, trust the possessor of the key to validate keys that he
signs.  Even though you tried setting the ownertrust by specifying a
different "local user" each time, GnuPG didn't change the value in
relation to the "local user" but in relation to you the person.

You can't.  See the above.
