As long as you don't call it a path.
Always have, and always will! /waves old man cane around in a threatening manner
Don't try to fuckin understand me, just let me escape from reality, ain't nobody telling me what to do, or what not to do, this is my life, this is my computer, so...
Isn't that what a hierarchical string of them are called?
Idk about hierarchy but
PATHis a thing and the proper terminology is filepath, so the word path becomes ambiguated as it could be used to refer to either. Hence why I say it is bad practice to use it as a primary reference in conversation. Otherwise you'll get interns and users modifying theirPATHfor no damn reason and wondering why nothing works.
