Thank you, it will be interesting to read.

I found what is the problem, namely, my Emacs configuration requires
EXWM and EXWM probably requested some authorizations, I cannot
know. So for now for remote usage of Emacs I have just removed
(require 'exwm) as it does not make sense remotely anyway and it
works.
