Aah… Thank you!! I must have missed it i bashrc.
Yes, you’re right - they can get updated on any update, so that was a much nicer/better way. Thank you so much! 
I don’t know… Not a real problem, I guess. Maybe feels a little too generous? …cmp to standard 755/644. I know over the years I’ve always been annoyed by *fat disks plugged in, and everything copied went 777. And on my old Mac - for some reason when dragging a picture from Firefox to the desktop, or into a folder, they got 750/640. So, when you later pushed that image and forgot to fix it first (because everything looked ok in the testbed) - it didn’t display on the website. (guess I’'ve developed some sort of “permission-OCD” from that. ^_^) For mounting (*fat) usb-disks/sticks now, I’ll always check first, and if it’s a disk I use regularly, you can put 022 it in fstab. I haven’t checked yet in Rocky, how it behaves with *fat disks. Maybe it’s already set in some auto_fs file?
I guess it just feels better to origin from standard, and make adjustments when needed.
