Oh I would have noticed instantly.

I wonder if it was a dnf update I had yet to
install.   Hmmmmm...

The last dnf update in f36 was 5 months ago.  The one before
that was 9 months ago.   

I poked around the source for dnf on GitHub, and I do see a commit from 2021 which kinda backs up the multiple lines argument:

https://github.com/rpm-software-management/dnf/pull/1779

However, best I understand it was so you could append excludes in a *repo* file, not multiple appending lines in the main dnf.conf. 

Trying to read the code on my phone is giving me a headache so I will leave it up to smarter people here.
