It would be correct to say something like, "If you are checking out the
tree, csup is a drop-in replacement." The statement is not correct without
qualification since "drop-in replacement" has a well understood meaning in
computer circles, and as it stands now csup isn't.

This isn't a TMTOWTDI problem. It's a "your statement is factually
incorrect and every time you make it you spawn a pointless thread about
why it's factually incorrect" problem. Please adjust accordingly.
