I see n8n everywhere and while I love automation I can't think of a use case, that couldn't be realized in Bash instead.

Only semi-related:

How do people pronounce this?

In Ate In?
Nate In?
Innate In?
Nathan?

Aw man! That's by far the least interesting.

I was hoping for "Nate n", "nation", or multiply them together to get "9 n"
