Whether 'strstr' should exist at *all* is another matter entirely. 🤣
Although you may be too young to remember that there was a SYSV release in which its libc's strstr(3) had a huge buffer-overflow and no one in the SYSV userbase trusted it anymore (even after the bug was fixed). I remember distinctly trying to port glibc to SYSV just to get strtstr(3) back and my boss said it was a waste of time & just use another library.
