My hope is that in the long run, the ini-style of settings can help battle this Windows Server x64 issue (yes googling this does return many unproven/non-reproducible reports for other projects, very disheartening).

The frustrations of how to pass environment variables in different computing environments is an issue that's orthogonal to how GDAL expresses configuration through environment variables. I get that the rules of environment variable resolution can be quite bespoke depending on the computing platform and environment you are operating on, but it's not legit to say "environment variables don't always work for me, we should do config files, but I don't have a reproducible test case to show that"
