Description
https://github.com/hasufell/abstract-filepath/issues/10#issuecomment-900782958
> But as an example the file you linked makes an assumption that the only valid absolute filepath on Windows is one that starts with a drive letter. Which is not true.
>
> It also makes an assumption that badElements is invalid for all paths on Windows. Which is also not true. e.g. \\.\COM1 is perfectly valid and points to the first COM port.
>
> It makes an attempt to distinguish between the different namespaces. As in, it recognizes \\?\ but then makeValid doesn't seem to.
