Indeed, rm ---presume-input-tty is quite slick for letting rm --p always stand for rm --preserve-root. You should also change tail --p (--pid is desired, not --presume-input-pipe), and for symmetry, fix head --p (not ambiguous, but again it should be ---presume-input-pipe for tests only). - -- Life is short - so eat dessert first!
