Very unfortunate name collision with rv for R (https://github.com/A2-ai/rv).

Is it really a name collision when they're effectively completely different namespaces? For example, no one thinks Rust's `cargo` might be the same thing as Ruby's obscure `cargo` library.

It's not a library. It's an executable that needs to be on the PATH to use it. And the executable has the exact same name.

So does the example I provided.
