Thanks for letting me know! I couldn’t find anything about Bitlocker as antivirus but assuming you’re talking about BitDefender (which also has flagged it). I’ve submitted a false positive report.

It looks like a few vendors are flagging the URL. [1] Not sure why. Nothing sticks out at me on urlscan [2] You may have to reach out to those vendors to see what is tickling their detectors.

hurl has the enjoyable duality where it can mean throw or vomit, where in the case of this language's curious construction both meanings apply.

This was a consideration in naming the language

This is incredibly funny and also brilliant: toss/return is an implementation of algebraic effects!
