If you happen to call config.load() twice, the latter fails to read from default_files. This leads to difficult to troubleshoot issues like:
pydantic_core._pydantic_core.ValidationError: 1 validation error for AppConfig
SECRET_KEY
Field required [type=missing, input_value={}, input_type=dict]

This probably is avoidable by very reasonably saying that we shouldn't be calling config.load() twice. However the docs suggest using config.django_manage() which itself calls config.load(), so in that case at least it is unavoidable.
It looks like the method to check for files loaded data in version 5.0 should be updated.
