True, ‘try’ won’t make reading and understanding a command obsolete, but it’s a great tool to prevent accidental deletion of important files, like OP described.

I was taught that Try was to be sure your command was well formed, if its a complex command with some regex for example...

Though I have not used it much over the years, as I havent had to do much personal regex for a long while.
