@anthk Yes, every distribution of proprietary coreutils were turds, had arbitrary limits and could be easily made to crash with random input.

Even early in development, when there was only a few packages plus a coreutils, GNU coreutils became the de-facto standard coreutils for even proprietary Unix as they tended to work properly and didn't have arbitrary limits.

GNU coreutils is the most developed, featureful and debugged coreutils, but people are obsessed with not using it for seemingly the only reason being that it defends the users freedom?
