+ * not going to be denied by this ruleset when it is enacted.

+ * For historical reasons, the %LANDLOCK_ACCESS_FS_REFER right is always denied
+ * by default, even when its bit is not set in @handled_access_fs.  In order to
+ * add new rules with this access right, the bit must still be set explicitly
+ * (cf. `Filesystem flags`_).
+ *
+ * The explicit listing of *handled access rights* is required for backwards
+ * compatibility reasons.  In most use cases, processes that use Landlock will
+ * *handle* a wide range or all access rights that they know about at build time
+ * (and that they have tested with a kernel that supported them all).
