I agree.  Is there a mismatch at present?

However, I think we have different attitudes towards configuration.  I
am looking for the simplest approach that could possibly work.  Imo,
the standard way fits this criterion.  The default settings are in
config/leoSettings.leo, the users overrides are in
home/.leo/myLeoSettings.leo, and all other tweaks are in the .leo
files being opened.  This organization, in combination with
@ifplatform and @ifhostname trees, should be flexible enough for
everyone.

Trying to make sense of every possible permutation and combination of
multiple leoSettings.leo and myLeoSettings.leo nodes in all possible
directories will be a thankless task.  The docs, even if accurate, it
would be neither clear nor helpful.
