For 64 days and eleven releases, it only got touched by repo-wide sweeps — never a real feature update. Removing it isn't…
That theme — matching what the tool says to what it actually does — runs through three more PRs. In 1047, the command layer was still printing the deprecated "oh" binary name in help text, even though the underlying resolver already knew the real invoked name.
