Try uploading a file to /.well-known/ on Shopify or Wix. You cannot. Their file managers block hidden directories (starting with a dot). To do it, you need a custom app, a meta-field hack, or a reverse proxy. That is sysadmin work. Uploading a file to the root is user work. That is the difference.

So the solution is that both Shopify and Wix should let the user edit those files. That's it.

		Agreed. In a perfect world, they would. But I cannot merge PRs into Shopify's core. Waiting for trillion-dollar corporations to change their security models is a death sentence for a new protocol. We build for the infrastructure that exists today, not the one we wish for. When they open the gates, we will move. Until then, we live in the root.
