Directory names are a sequence of arbitrary nonzero bytes. Parsing a
concatenation of arbitrary strings sucks. Directories can only be
separated by zero bytes.

Yeah, and SQL injection attacks are PEBKAC problems. Tokenization by
insertion of whitespace into arbitrary strings is plain harmful. The bug

Your one-liner sucks. Talking about CLI tools, most of all we should be
precise at how to use them correctly; otherwise how would we be able to
decide whether they are useful or not? How about

Yes, it's faster to write your own tools rather than reading that
