Yeah, I’d never seen it used in this way either. They use it mostly to modify config files, which gives you a lot of control over most things on a Linux box. We also use it for Macs to do things like create a standardized local administrator account (since Apple doesn’t have a LAPS equivalent). It’s a pretty tangled web but we have an old-school Linux admin who keeps it all ticking (we just worry about his ticker!).
Good luck!
Wait, industry is moving away from central neutralization? My wife is the facilities manager for an R1 engineering department and they commissioned a building two years ago with a central acid collection tank -_-
