Differentials between different URI parsers are a huge source of bugs. The amount of shenanigans you can do inside URIs is bonkers, and trying to handle this by yourself with some regex and string splitting is absolutely insane.
Like https://www.example.com:443@203569230:8080/ will send you to the IP address "12.34.56.78" on port 8080 using basic authentication with the domain and port as username and password. If your code tries to split by `:` or check that the URI starts with some specific string, then it won't be good enough. Indeed, use a library that you trust.
