satrim is not deployed to /usr/local/sdm by EZsdmInstaller - should it be?

... that's it ...

What's the logical argument for including it in the installer?

Here's my thinking: If a system has sdm installed, the trim-enable plugin is there, and can be used to enable trim.

On the other hand, if a system doesn't have sdm installed but they want to use satrim, they can simply download the one file (satrim). The same holds true for systems with sdm installed. Want satrim? Just download it.

Adding satrim to /usr/local/sdm would result in a script that 99.999% of sdm users will never use. Plus, most non-sdm users will not use ezsdmInstaller to install sdm just to get satrim; they'll simply download the one file they want.

You’re right, downloading the single file from GitHub is the better way. Why didn’t I think of that?

(Because I always git clone entire projects, even from GitHub. In my peculiar working experience, I could only use the git command line interface and I don’t know of any CLI way to cherry pick a single file out of a remote repository. But with this fancy schmancy GUI GitHub thing, it’s clearly possible. Old dog, etc.)

We often forget that there are other perspectives besides our own?
