This allows the scrub command to scrub without asking the user if he really wants to scrub the area. Useful in scripts.
"quiet" and "skip user input" are two different things. can you use a more clean option like accepting "-y" to the "scrub" subcommand ?
I'd prefer to have this hidden from common users as much as possible.
This is probably well-intentioned, but keep in mind old (and good!) Unix rules like:
"UNIX was not designed to stop you from doing stupid things, because that would also stop you from doing clever things." - Doug Gwyn
Don't try hiding stuff - others might find it useful.
You can use the usual scrub command, noone is preventing you from anything.
Using this kind of a scrub.quiet command is really an arguable practice.
Best regards,
