If true your solution implies the O.P.'s question is an example of the XY
problem <https://xyproblem.info/>. But since the behavior they asked for
was not an obvious example of the XY problem it is reasonable to take their

read about) many scenarios I might have initially responded to,
incorrectly, with a "WTF?".
