I'd be curious to know if this helps on supercomputers, which are notorious for frequently hanging for a few seconds on an ls -l.

It's a very cool experiment. Just wanted to perhaps steer the conversation towards those things rather than whether or not this was a good ls replacement because like you say that feels like it was missing the point
