voice is not one of them. Holding ⌃⌥V talks and letting go stops, and a URL
has no second half, so one would leave the microphone listening with nothing to
close it. Asking for it says so rather than starting it.
The first fourteen are spelled the way Rectangle spells them, and restore is
accepted for unsnap, so a config written against rectangle:// works after
one substitution. Coming from Rectangle has that, and the
switch that skips it.
A name nothing answers to says so on screen rather than failing quietly, since the caller is a script with nowhere to receive an error.
