I always thought of the additional php.ini as a way to change some details and not a way to set up the whole runtime. Especially when a user has write access to that file it seems to me also an security issue, when PHP allows to set/change critical settings there. tl;dr: There is probably a reason, why your provider doesn't allow you to change php.ini settings directly.
