Research direction

Start with backblaze_add_exclusion.py around line 73, especially lines 70-80. Review how existing exclusions are collected and determine whether a parent path such as /a/b/c is already excluded before adding /a/b/c/d/e. Done means child exclusions are skipped when an ancestor is already excluded.
