The settings dictionary is copied once when you pass it into the
configurator, and it is supposed to be a shallow copy.
new_settings = {}
new_settings.update(settings)
That doesn't explain your issue though.
A likely fix is just to follow the pattern I use, which is to leave the
settings dictionary for primitive types. Services and utilities are things
I attach to the registry itself (it's a dict too).
