Got it! I think nested envs become confusing really quickly, so there it is indeed better to do it explicitly.
My assumption overall in this is that most people have just one .env per project (or perhaps in sub-folders per environment, e.g prod, staging, local), but these don't nest. With nested .env files, the mental overhead they bring remove (IMO) most of the benefits, if not more.
