		jacques_chester on Sept 19, 2022 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: There is no “software supply chain” Provenance is fine. People use it, particularly in narrow settings around the literal provenance of software assets. I have been in this space for a while and I have come across zero arguments that "provenance" should be ditched due to dictionary obstacles.

You won't have come across those arguments. They are had by marketing types.

Why would marketing even care about any of that?
