Or was it non preserve. I never tried it though. I guess a vm should be fine to test it. On the other hand I don't care enough.

The flag is called --no-preserve-root, but the flag wouldn't do anything here because you're not deleting root (/), you're deleting all non-hidden files and directories under root (/*), and rm will just let you do it.

Pretty sure it's --no-preserve-root or something similar.
