I'd forgotten that you can just enable minor modes without any of that. You can just say ((org-mode . ((mode . org-startup-folded-mode)))) Or of there are different types: ((org-mode . ((org-startup-type . foo) (mode . org-startup-folded-mode)))) > 3. org-startup-folded is just an example. We have numerous variables > like this.

We will certainly forget > creating dedicated modes when adding similar variables in future. There's dozens of variables that have to be set before `org-mode' is called? That sounds like an fragile design.
