I'd rename it; aqua is also a CLI version manager. https://aquaproj.github.io/

The year is 2031. All new programs are named in the style of Chinese drop-ship brands on Amazon for distinctness reasons. You use TYGHI to format your code written in the language of PHULJD. You're finally pleased with your self. This is real hand-crafted code in an era where machines write everything. You publish it on YCMBTR's site HKRNW as "SHWHN: ZHBSK - a tool to manage your PHULJD modules" hoping to find someone else who thinks of this as useful. You refresh the page compulsively every 30 seconds. Suddenly a comment appears and you are so excited another actual HMN could respond to you in the sea of machines. You read it: "You should rename this. ZHBSK is already in use as XNQET 2031.10's release nickname".

You wake up. It's the first day of summer holidays in 1995. What a crazy fever dream!
