Idk about hierarchy but PATH is a thing and the proper terminology is filepath, so the word path becomes ambiguated as it could be used to refer to either. Hence why I say it is bad practice to use it as a primary reference in conversation. Otherwise you’ll get interns and users modifying their PATH for no damn reason and wondering why nothing works.
Isn’t that what a hierarchical string of them are called?
