I can definitely delete a thousand items with a typo in my bash for loop/pipe. You should always defend against stupid or evil users or agents. If your documents are important, set up workflows and access to prevent destructive actions in the first place. Not every employee needs full root access to the billing system; they need readonly access to their records at most.

This is my life motto. Progressive exploration, codifying, use your codified workflows.

We know what open source is. You failed to answer how your solution is _different_ from others on the list. Your readme won't answer that question.
