Will WHM or cPanel ever remove the my.cnf changes I have made?

According to MySQL/MariaDB, the config files on my server are at /etc/my.cnf and ~/.my.cnf. I have to make changes to my.cnf for the entire server (all accounts). I would have expected to be able to add a new .cnf file into /etc/my.cnf.d/ but there doesn't seem to be an !includedir directive anywhere so those files are not read. Therefore it seems like the only thing I can do is edit /etc/my.cnf directly. So my question is, will WHM or cPanel ever remove the /etc/my.cnf changes I have made? Thanks!

  short answer: no, cpanel doesn't modify my.cnf
