Global Settings / Same settings, themes, and plugins across multiple vaults

How is this still not a thing? There are multiple threads requesting this feature. Why are the developers so adamant about vault-specific settings they don’t give users the option to have global settings?

There are even well-thought out posts explaining ways that Obsidian could support both global and vault-specific settings.

I can’t tell if the team is ignoring this because ‘people can just make their own plugins or solutions’. But aren’t plugins vault-specific (meaning there is no plugin-based solution to this issue)? And all the DIY solutions involve things like symlinks or convoluted file-syncing methods that can backfire.
