For fd a shell redirect creates you may want so be able to say
'this fd will have O_CLOEXEC set after the next exec'.
Also (possibly) a flag that can't be cleared once set and that
gets kept by dup() etc.
But maybe that is excessive?
I've certainly used:
# ip netns exec ns command 3</sys/class/net
in order to be able to (easily) read status for interfaces in the
default namespace and a specific namespace.
The would be hard if the O_CLOEXEC flag had got set by default.
(Especially without a shell builtin to clear it.)
