Could you expand on why this is incorrect?

It seems that when you call eza --absolute -T path/to/dir, eza outputs the root folder incorrectly. Subfolders and files there seem to be OK.

It seems that eza calculates the full path to the argument (path/to/dir), but only replaces the file name (dir) with it, leaving the path (path/to) intact. As a result, you end up with root folder having double path. In this example:

eza --absolute -T path/to/dir

The root folder is shown as

**path/to**/full/path/to/dir instead of just /full/path/to/dir
