The profile script previously nuked `XDG_DATA_DIRS` and then “helpfully” re-populated it with FHS paths. This was especially bad for systems like NixOS, which do not have `/usr` and rely on `XDG_DATA_DIRS` heavily. Quoting from https://fishshell.com/docs/current/cmds/set.html > If a variable is set to zero elements, it will become a list with zero elements. And indeed, that is what the `set -x --path XDG_DATA_DIRS` command does. We need to list the value explicitly, if we want to preserve it while setting variable options.
