cp might sound simple because its a very necessary thing for an OS to do, but there’s quite some technical depth to each of the core utils, if it were simple people would just be pumping out coreutil practice projects just like they do with “generic CRUD web app 5000”
Im so happy work stopped using ubuntu server after last time.
Also how the heck do you break cp of all things.
I dont want to experiment with core utils.
I invite you to peruse the man page for cp.

you might be surprised how many results come up when you search for this sort of thing
Give me 10 minutes and I’ll write you a cp that is completely fucked.
