This is was hard one in its own way:

https://github.com/himmelblau-idm/himmelblau/pull/1079/changes/83c1b07599e75d8d4c86e7df4ddace3ff34383db

I.e. simple patch but finding exactly correct simple patch of unlimited choices was the sudoku here.

I left out dynamic update as it requires:

1. Detection of "no sessions for user" (probably through loginctl?).
2. Maintaining "no sessions" state while e.g. running recursive chown.

I did not figure this out yet and even if I had it appears to me to be at least complex in size as my initial patch. Since the current returns error on dynamic change, it leaves door open to add a opt-in flag for it later.

The factor that Rust always adds in complexity is its layer compiler generated code i.e., it is hard to "hallucinate" (for human brain) how it executes. For C I just see it always duality with assembly, which makes it so much easier to deduce.

C is the most human readable and WYSIWYG language I know.

One that comes really close, despite being scripting language, is Lua (and efficient, already used in games such as Civilization 2).
