Meanwhile, the behavior that `exec 50>2.txt' does not have an effect does not seem to be the intentional design. It seems to be just a side effect of the manipulation of the saved fds. In this sense, the strange behavior I observe is the one that Chet did not primarily intend, I guess. But it's just my naive guess.
Manipulating the close-on-exec flag is not something the shell allows the
user to do out of the box. If you want to use something like a loadable
builtin to change that, strange things might happen.
