What system wide software stores their configs in anything but /etc? Data, sure, but not configs.

Docker installs in /var/lib. Tenable and Nessus use /opt.

There are tons of packages that store config files in places other than /etc.

I don’t know what Tenable and Nessus are. I’m guess you have to install them from outside the package manager or build them from source, in which case, yeah, using /opt for config would be acceptable.

Docker’s config file is located at:

/etc/docker/daemon.json

It's not in RHEL. Tenable and Nessus are vulnerability scanners, and Nessus at least can be installed via yum.

nginx at the very least, but there's way more

Nginx’ default config location is

/etc/nginx/
