See, that's where we have a strong disagreement.

In your world, if something is in your way, you fire the nuclear missiles
and then it's GONE, BABY!!!

In my world, if something is in the way, and rm -f doesn't remove it, I
will want to know *what* it is, and *how* it got there.  Because in my
world, there is a very strong possibility that this thing I'm trying to
remove is important, and I shouldn't be removing it.  Maybe I made a typo
somewhere earlier in the script, and I'm in the wrong directory.  Maybe
removing this unexpected *directory with contents* is not a wise idea.
