You selected stupid name for a flag. Everyone and their dog agrees
with that. There's even consensus on better name (and everyone agrees
it is better than .._SAFE). Of course, we could have debate if it is
NOREPLACE or NOREMOVE or ... and that would be bikeshed. This was just
poor naming on your part.
