Agreed. Molly-Guard is not a security tool, it provides basic safety
against things like "typed shutdown -r now in the wrong window". Most
people just give the same commands every time, for me it happens to be
shutdown -r now, and if molly-guard reliably catches that then its job
is done.

It was never designed to prevent fully deliberate shots in one's foot by
typing things like shutdown.someweirdsuffixthatnooneeverremembers -r
now.

Thanks for the work, I was never able to fully grasp the issue and the
inner workings of the solution, and thank you for allowing me to remain
silent during the process of finding and implementing the solution.

Greetings
Marc
