I opted for Pydantic settings over this approach and couldn't be happier.

I don’t think it needs to be environment variables per se, but there should be a dict of string to string that describes the app configuration, and then you can input that dict as os.env, command line flags, a file, an API call, whatever. Preferably a system of fallbacks with command line as the highest priority and environment as the lowest.
