Differences in parsing between show and uninstall?

[ternarydreams]

Is there an error between the keyboard and chair or is this behavior just inconsistent? I should be able to find a package with the same string I use to uninstall it.

The uninstall can use many different fields to identify packages that don't have a corresponding manifest in one of the configured sources for WinGet. The "show" command only works to display metadata from a manifest in a configured source when there is a matching installed package if the "Name" is being passed as the argument.
