Can't edit or delete at this point, so I'll note that I see this is against the "no snark" rule, and what I wanted to do was link to the c2.com wiki page "JustIsaDangerousWord" - a page that's now offline - about how a sentence gets better if you remove the word "just".

"Prolog is just a brute force search" -> "Prolog is a brute force search"

and then reference the Gary Larson comic ( https://pics.me.me/the-far-side-by-gary-larson-3-23-hey-wait... ) where the cow suddenly realises what they've been eating is /grass/.

All libraries are "just" some code which does something so you don't have to. Even if Prolog is "just a brute force search", well in the same kind of way, regex is "just" a state machine brute-force matching against a string. It's still a useful tool.
