By commenting the following lines, I could make your configuration work
and opening a filename argument correctly.  So the offender is here:

Thanks for this! However, for me, it has no effect.  Indeed, removing the local 
.emacs and .emacs.d did not change the behaviour at all.

However, downgrading to Emacs 28.3 (on Fedora 38) downgrades the following four 
files,    

emacs-1:28.3-0.rc1.fc38.x86_64                                                
emacs-common-1:28.3-0.rc1.fc38.x86_64                                         
emacs-filesystem-1:28.3-0.rc1.fc38.noarch                                     
libotf-0.9.13-22.fc38.x86_64                                                  

and for me brings back the old behavior (of file loading correctly).

So, the problem may be with the newer versions of one of those files.

Thanks again for your help!  Let me know if I can provide more information.

Best wishes!
