Through I use rg to initiate searches, my muscle memory keeps using grep after pipes.
I did it too, even after I initially released ripgrep. At this point, I've mostly re-trained my muscle memory to use `rg` in pipelines. (Particularly because I was careful to make sure `rg` worked just like `grep` does in pipelines.)
I also find that combining `-o/--only-matching` and `-r/--replace` has replaced many of my uses of `sed` and `awk`.
Huh I hadn't even realized I did that. I think grep has the "filter in pipe" spot in my head while rg has the "search recursively in all files" spot.
