(OP) appreciate all the feedback. I tried stow and chezmoi, neither felt right to me. Evidently that puts me in a small minority!

On the off chance there's anyone else who sees this as worth exploring here's a <1min demo video - https://www.reddit.com/r/unixporn/comments/1f9u1xk/oc_better...




Some responders here almost seem offended you wouldn't use chezmoi. Kind of strange. I couldn't care less about someone using chezmoi/tool x - big deal - but I'm always interested to read how people approach automation of their workflows, the tradeoffs, any cool tricks they employed that I might not have heard of before. Are engineers discouraged from problem solving now? It's not like youre doing this on company time; you are allowed to do things for fun/interest's sake..
