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.
