/etc/relayd.conf has default permissions of 0600 root:wheel
Most /etc/*.conf have 0644 permissions.

The only other exception is /etc/pf.conf.

Curious why this is, are secrets typically stored in relayd.conf?

Reading through relayd.conf(5): see 'tls option' > 'ca key path password 
password'.

So yep, it can contain passwords.
