Tangential question: there is one reason to use NODELETE in the dlopen(3) man page: https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man3/dlopen.3.html

  RTLD_NODELETE (since glibc 2.2)
    Do not unload the shared object during dlclose().
    Consequently, the object's static and global variables
    are not reinitialized if the object is reloaded with
    dlopen() at a later time.

Are there any other times when it's beneficial to use NODELETE?
