I don't want to fight for name, q was a shortener.

Happy to rename it to qj instead, but the option of renaming the binary it's a good workaround.



Given these are two of the least-used characters in English and basically never appear in this sequence, it would certainly help for all the reasons people are mentioning. It'd at least follow suit with like 'rg' for 'ripgrep'.
