For example, I turned on iCloud sharing of the Documents and Downloads folders; so their entries in $HOME are now symlinked. If I start nvim on the command line from $HOME, I am able to navigate to the Documents via nvim-tree-lua or cd; however, if I start vimr on the command line from $HOME, Documents doesn't even appear in the nvim-tree-lua, but I can still cd into it. Many other plugins also fail (e.g., Telescope) when I use vimr instead of nvim from the command line and when I am trying to enter a directory that is inside Documents, which is symlinked.
