Discussion: Should we keep creating bridges when mounting a forest?

After moving Pandora to completely new infra and changing bridge in kartoteka/ariadne, everyone now has a problem with leftovers of the old bridges and/or users in their local config. While user manifest may be refreshed via a bridge, the bridge itself cannot do that.

Now people who have the old bridges, even though they run wl f mount :/f/ariadne:/f/pandora:, they still end up getting errors. What should happen is that the bridge that resides in ariadne should naturally take precedence, but that also leaves a question whether the old bridge should have been created in the first place (unless user explicitly used either wl b create or wl u im).

As a side note, is it intended that even though the full mount command was :/f/ariadne:/f/pandora:, the search logic still tries to resolve :/f/pandora: locally (hence not taking under consideration that the full path began with /f/ariadne?
