Somehow I feel like using something that just simulates rm -rf /* would have brought the point across just as well and a bit safer...

But not as fun

Agreed, this is irresponsible.

There's warnings even in the description of the package:

    "name": "rimrafall",
    "version": "1.0.0",
    "description": "rm -rf /* # DO NOT INSTALL THIS",

How would you accidentally rm rf yourself with this?

A github issue "should" have sufficed, but it often doesn't. A practical demonstration is powerful enough to trigger immediate action.
