   @mattcasters thanks for the careful review. Both points are fixed in 
d81db5d836 (details inline).
   
   @hansva on your two questions:
   
   **Should the environment win over hop-config?** For the flag itself it now 
does, the same as `HopResolvedSettings`. For the imported variables I kept the 
environment at the lowest precedence, so turning the flag on cannot change what 
any existing name resolves to. The cost is that it can only fill gaps, not 
override hop-config in an image, which you mentioned on the issue. I think that 
override is worth having, but probably not for the whole environment.
   
   **The `HOP_` prefix.** That fits the override case well. Names like `HOP_*` 
are deliberate, so a follow-up could import them by default and let them win 
over hop-config, while this flag stays opt-in for arbitrary names like 
`PROJECT_HOME_PATH`, which the issue asks for. I would rather keep that as a 
separate PR so this one does not change existing precedence, but I am happy to 
fold it in here if you prefer.
