Both settings were consumed during startup before the config file was loaded, so a toml-set value arrived too late to matter and the game recreated its data tree in Documents regardless. Only through the command line or arguments worked. Path resolution now runs after config load, and command-line > toml > default precedence is made explicit rather than an accident of ordering, so a saved config can no longer override a command-line value (game_iso had the same latent hole).
