remove file exists check that prevents cfitsio syntax #432

Closed marcschefer closed 2 years ago

marcschefer commented 2 years ago

closes #418

The only reason cfitsio HDU syntax was not working for flags was an explicit check for the file existing in the configuration.

Overall we still need to investigate if using cfitsio syntax anywhere is actually guaranteed to work all the time, as it's more of a happy accident than anything planned.
