Thinking about this cd double directory completion
Found the current cd completion here: /opt/homebrew/Cellar/fish/4.3.3/share/fish/completions/cd.fish
This function: functions __fish_complete_cd
I guess it mostly handles this feature called CDPATH that I don't plan to use. It lets you put directories where you can cd into their subdirectories from anywhere... but then your cd tab completion is always full of maybe irrelevant options.
