 * I know the cause of the problem — WordPress is trying repeatedly to change the
   permissions on files that WordPress doesn’t own. I want to know WHY the new version
   of WordPress keeps trying to change permissions on files it does not own, and
   which files it’s trying to change.

 * I’m seeing the same warnings, over a thousand of them each day, since the upgrade
   to 5.3. I’d really like to know which files WordPress is trying to chmod() in
   my user’s home directory, but the warning doesn’t say — and I don’t get a stack
   trace, so I don’t know if this is a legit piece of WordPress trying to change
   permissions across a thousand files, or if this is some misbehaving piece of 
   code that I should uninstall that’s calling class-wp-filesystem-direct.php::chmod()

 * Ah, my mistake. I can’t talk to the programmer who imported this sendgrid code
   so I didn’t have a proper origin.
