I don't remember where I saw it either, but when I first used OpenBSD
around 2018 some of
the first websites I came across specified `pkg_add -Uu` to update
packages. Some people
out there putting false commands on their blog posts.

I don't know where people get the idea to use -U from. It keeps coming
up somehow but when our docs tell people to update packages it's always
"pkg_add -u".
-U is a special case for when you want to try to get some particular
_new_ package installed but don't care too much if it doesn't work
because you haven't updated dependencies properly. It is not for updates.
