The value provided by this setting must take precedence over pre-configured `TERMINAL_TOTAL_DIFFICULTY` parameter. Clients should accept the setting as a decimal value (i.e., *not* hexadecimal). Except under exceptional scenarios, this setting is expected to not be used. Sufficient warning to the user about this exceptional configurable setting should be provided.
