Fair point, I potentially should've left off the first sentence. I stand behind the rest of the post, but the first sentence is a bit on the edge and I apologize.

Alright, well, I've never seen an application/framework spit out environment variables when it was misconfigured. But then again, I barely work with web-related stuff so maybe I just don't use the kind of software that does this. Could you provide some examples?

Many web frameworks do this when in "debug" mode.

Your comment sounded more colloquial than uncivil to me, but thanks for responding so respectfully.
