The surrounding context is &quot;read in this faux-XML file&quot;. I could paste the whole method that parses the file but that line would still make no sense without an explanatory comment about the lack of spec (there&#x27;s about 2x as many lines of comments as code because of this) and that some files have a duplicated `template` key but some don&#x27;t and all the code which uses the `template` key assumes it&#x27;s in the `config` section.
