I remember Caffeine used to be a third-party program that would prevent your Mac from sleeping, same behavior as the `caffeinate` here. Were they acquired and incorporated into the OS?

Caffeine was a front-end by a third party company. Used it back in the day, the command existed already though.

Since then I've moved to Amphetamine (same purpose menu-bar app, even stronger chemicals, has timed keep-awake etc).
