Accomplishing your task would be most simple if you were to
rearrange storage
drive:\subfolder\allowed
drive:\subforder\disallowed
That way you get out of the business of settings permissions
file by file
drive:\subfolder List to temp
drive:\subfolder\allowed Modify for files to temp
drive:\subfolder\disallowed either
do not give anything to temp, assuming no other grants
are to groups that include temp
or, deny full for temp
The way you summarized the additive effect of permissions, the
deny trumping allow, and the explict outranking inherited are correct
provided you understand
this is speaking of NTFS permissions only, not the permissions on
the share
explicit allow overrules inherited deny, so deny does not always
trump allow as you mentioned
