eksno commented on the word areliant
areliant (adj.) — of a system, environment, or component: not relied upon by any real process; safe to modify, break, or destroy without consequence. The opposite of "load-bearing." Used in software engineering and infrastructure contexts to flag code paths, branches, services, or files that have no real downstream consumers and can therefore be modified, refactored, or deleted aggressively. Example: "Go ahead and force-push that branch — it's areliant, nothing's pointed at it." Coined 2026 by Jonas Lindberg.
