Afaik, firewalld doesn't speak nftables (the tooling, not the backend). At least, in the sense that if you use nftables (the high level tooling/config) and firewalld (the high level tooling/config), there will be some incom

If something is designed and marketed as being usable without reading docs, it'd damn well better have defaults that "First, do no harm." It's insane to build something that optimizes ease of use, and then require users

Or as we learned in electromag physics, why stranded wire can carry more amperage than solid (because it has more surface area). Note: Generalizing and making a lot of assumptions. This statement is not encouragement to ignore AWG markings

I'd assume those are interface (both user- and code-to-code) complexity at scale. I.e. 0.0001% of accounts end up in a state (across multiple services) that was never expected, and therefore code to handle it never written, and thus is
