There is `rip`[1] (also written in Rust) which does more or less the same? Or am I missing something?

Thank you for your comment, I try to get as close as possible to the signature of the real rm command in order to facilitate aliasing, plus I have many ideas to improve my project that are not necessarily available on rip

I would write to the author of `rip` and ask if you can take the project (including the memorable/cool name) over.

`rip` seems unmaintained (three open PRs from one to five years old). It has a name that doesn't clash with an existing *nix command and people seem to also ask for the same thing since its inception (see issue #3 from 2016).
