Method get_conf_stanzas internally calls
$SPLUNK_HOME/bin/splunk cmd btool server list
This command leads to accumulated output. It reads server.conf files from all apps.
Such behaviour may lead to invalid results, if an app has different (not supported) format in the conf file.
I suggest to change login and read configs only from the system app:
$SPLUNK_HOME/bin/splunk cmd btool server list --app=system
