The user receives no feedback that their configuration was ignored.\n\nWe should call `warn_print` to inform the user that invalid config was detected and skipped, using the error messages already provided via the `err=` arguments to `validate_or_raise`.\n\n**Affected files:**\n- `src/usethis/_file/toml/io_.py` (lines ~429-440)\n- `src/usethis/_file/yaml/io_.py` (lines ~457-468)\n\nThis is a pre-existing issue that predates the validate_or_raise refactoring — the original code also silently returned on invalid config.","author":{"url":"https://github.com/nathanjmcdougall","@type":"Person","name":"nathanjmcdougall"},"datePublished":"2026-04-07T04:46:43.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":2},"url":"https://github.com/1841/usethis-python/issues/1841"}
