Bun v1.0.0 - Hackdot

I think the definition on Wikipedia is correct, otherwise a "drop-in" replacement is no different than any other replacement, making it a meaningless term.

> [Drop-in replacement] refers to the ability to replace one hardware or software component with another one without any other code or configuration changes being required and resulting in no negative impacts.

I don't see a conflict by that definition. The drop in could easily or partially be interpreted from the perspective of the receiver and does not have to be a static property of the replacement.

Sure, and for many projects it can be replaced without any other code or configuration changes.

My feeling is that not all replacements have feature parity, but a drop in replacement does.
