the sqlite codebase is a gem.

tldr; mcaffee made a shit ton of sqlite files in the temp folder causing people to call the sqlite devs phone angrily. now they name all files etilqs to prevent this.

@memes Daniel Stenberg (the cURL guy) has a similar problem. Many, many programs use cURL as library or as binary, and he gets a lot of weird E-Mails: https://daniel.haxx.se/blog/2024/01/12/emails-i-received-the-collection/
