Description
I feel the CLI when asked for options is auto-accepting to aggressively. In the above image I entered `y` and hit ENTER which then unexpectedly accepted the **next** input question (Redis). I fully expected needing to enter my input **and hit enter to accept it** but the auto-accept felt aggressive and doesn't allow me to change my mind.
In other CLIs I use this is different behavior and requires me to hit enter to accept, which I prefer
