I agree the status quo has its benefits. However, it has the distinct downside 
that because each interpreter has its own storage for copied settings, other 
code has to assume the settings *might* be different in each interpreter, even 
if they're currently always the same.

If the invariant bits are moved out, then it clearly indicates when code can 
safely assume that every interpreter will be seeing the same value.
