@hascat There are cleaner approaches or drastically different ones. Because of legacy AND for sharing reasons, we need Bash. Then you learn either Bash+Cleaner_Approach or just Bash. The only way to break this is by starting from scratch and forcing it as the default. Which is not gonna happen for Linux for a long time. At least according to me.
