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.

At this point, I think the namespace for 2-3 character CLI binaries has probably been clobbered several times over.

So does the example I provided.

You might use R and Ruby. Wouldn't be unheard of. Alias ftw.
