You can do all file management operations from the command line. No need to use the Finder.

Do you even git?

Surely experiment 1…n should be branches.

Why would you use the Finder when macOS has a perfectly fine shell?

The long leaf pine has a grass phase where it just looks like grass

Trees are weird, because phylogenetically there is no such thing as trees. As in: there is no single branch of the evolutionary tree where trees split off from other plants and there’s just an entire branch of different trees. Instead, different plants in separate parts of the evolutionary tree evolved into trees, and sometimes back into non-tree plants, and sometime even back into trees again. So a tree that spends part of its lifecycle as grass is par for the course.

That’s mainly the US though. Here in the Netherlands they are planning cities with the intent to discourage car use as much as possible.
