I think @tgv was A) trying to be funny/sarcastic, and B) using 2 different definitions of "offensive" (of which the dictionary has a few, actually [0])..all to make the point that the meaning of "offensive nim" is somewhat ambiguous without more context.
EDIT: @tgv might have been more understood himself had he said "title should be changed to 'Offensive (Red Team) Nim'" or something along those lines.

- tgv 4y agoI was not trying to be funny. I just didn't understand it, and had no idea this was a regular term. There are two common meanings for offensive, and one of them matches "weaponize", but none of them fitted the README. I did try to avoid sounding condescending or negative by giving light-hearted examples in the only context I knew for those words.
- cb321 4y agoAh. Thanks for the clarification and apologies for my own misinterpretation. EDIT: FWIW I think in this case the origin is just "opposite of 'defensive'" as in "offense & defense" in sports..red & blue teams, etc.
