Well go on.
Btw, I just realised that it can be read as sarcastic, which I
didn’t intend. I am honestly curious, even if skeptical. I am
biased, but I am open to be convinced.
BTW you can run into this issue even only considering Unix/POSIX:
POSIX ACLs, AFS, NFSv4.
I can see the point of a very simple base API with system-dependent
extensions, but am likewise skeptical that one can be designed that
isn't useless.
