The doc says only module.hugoVersion, module.imports, mediatypes, and outputformats are inherited. Why not inherit all config? I’d like sites that import my theme module to inherit markup.highlight.{style,noclasses}, for instance (which they could override if they want to).

Why isn't all site config inherited from imported modules?
