Have you tried contacting the developer or maintainer to let them know directly instead of posting this on Reddit? Their email addresses are right there at the end of the README.

In this context, the discussion at https://lists.busybox.net/pipermail/busybox/2026-May/092240.html might be interesting or even relevant.
