Yeah, it's fishy. I never claimed the Java theory is confirmed, just that itβs what an insider told me after the fact.
They said a dry-run flag was passed in the --gnu-style form, but the internal tool expected -dry, and since Java has no native CLI parser, it just ignored it and ran for real.
Supposedly the dev team was used to Python-style CLIs, and this got through without proper testing.
