It's not a library. It's an executable that needs to be on the PATH to use it. And the executable has the exact same name.

At this point, I think the namespace for 2-3 character CLI binaries has probably been clobbered several times over.

My lazy heuristic is to use nix-locate to search through the 100k packages in Nixpkgs, e.g.:

> nix-locate -r 'bin/uv'

Not perfect, but sort of useful for choosing names for executables for internal corporate projects, little wrapper scripts, etc. It's definitely still possible to find reasonable names!

But I've never done the analysis of such short names yet :D

So does the example I provided.
