I think you are overcomplicating things and contradicting yourself. Maybe you are unfamiliar with how paths work on *nix.

So then read `XDG_CONFIG_HOME` to find the "virtual" path where the driver will mount the config "virtual" path that could have just been referenced directly in `XDG_CONFIG_HOME`?

As opposed to not being provided by something? That's nonsense and even if it did make sense, if ALL paths are virtual, the distinction is meaningless.
Also, you're taking "everything is a file" too literally.

It is referenced directly though... > That's nonsense What exactly are you asserting to be nonsense? Exactly nothing I said about paths on unix is nonsense, please provide a specific example of what you think is nonsense.
- HumanOstrich 11mo agoYou're right, I think there is a language barrier, or you are not arguing in good faith.
- smaudet 11mo agoHmm. You don't reply (to my queries), only like to insult. Well, ok, whatever. This is a fairly trivial thing to discuss...
