They do matter, and I'm sorry if whatever I wrote made you feel otherwise.

The use case that you mentioned does not fit the way I use Sling:

So I considered that having a variant of "set node" that fails if
paths already exist does not seem useful *at this point*. And it would
actually get in the way for my use cases - but I could of course
refrain from using it.

Not implementing that variant now does not prevent someone from
implementing it later. I don't think it's useful myself, and I might
have more (unwanted) weight in these discussions as I worked a lot on
repoinit in its beginnings. But don't let that stop you.
