What
Reading the daemon config now classifies the result as text, absent, refused, failed or thrown. A device-node, directory, too-large-for-the-filesystem error, or content over 1 MiB counts as a refusal that aborts the read-modify-write rather than overwriting the file. This applies on the newer storage read path only.
Evidence
is not a regular file (or exceeds 1MiB); refusing read-modify-write
Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
