In the last couple of years, there is an effort to reduce /home directory configs. Many programs have migrated ~/.config and/or ~/.local/share/ for configs and/or data. Arch has a nice wiki describing this:

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/XDG_Base_Directory

So, it might be nice to migrate entice's config to ~/.config/entice, rather than just ~/.entirce ?

Yup, it works! I removed ~/.entice, and now I get only:

[andrew@thinkpad entice]$ find /home/andrew/ -iname "entice"
/home/andrew/.config/entice
