True. True. But, at least we reverse the slashes in smbclient with good reason and with awareness.

Arguably, it's as much an error that Samba's smbclient will accept
//service in place of \\service (SMB may be a fairly proprietary
standard, but it's still a standard with a published syntax), though
it does make using smbclient from a Unix shell (which takes \s as
escapes) significantly less painful.
