To be fair, I can think of reasons why you would want to be able to set them in various ways.

- settings.json - set for machine, project

- env var - set for an environment/shell/sandbox

- slash command - set for a session

- magical keyword - set for a turn

I tend to make a concerted effort to often make sure anything settable via cli is settable via environment variable... though, I often have a search-upward option for a .env file as well. Mostly so that it's easier to containerize/deploy an application in a predictable/reusable way.
