Hah! Indeed, you are correct - thanks for pointing this out.

pgrep won't catch the pipe to grep :) it also has -f, whose lack allows
matching only inside the invoking exe name.

Somewhat ironically, i think what might have contributed to my error re. grep's -F was that at the time i wrote that post, i was working on a script making use of pkill, and playing around with its -x option ....
