Just now, after I went through several rounds of --init-docks/fix layout/--use-docks one after another on the four files I want to have open at once, and then I reopened Leo, one of the outlines opened in the --init-docks configuration even though I had used --use-docks.
The whole thing is just unworkable as it is. Not that I have any useful suggestions myself. I don't have a clue about how this all works.
