    I see why I was doing this to Flush Keyboard Buffer and prevent leftover keystrokes from auto-submitting commands. However, I see your point.

    The `inkey()` loop was originally intended to flush the keyboard buffer before calling `getstr()`, to prevent leftover keystrokes from auto-submitting commands. I agree the implementation wasn't ideal. I will replace it with a safer version using a timeout, CPU yield, and proper termination checks.

    Did you miss my previous comment about loops?
