even when /bin/sh will do.....

When exactly will /bin/sh do and why should it have helped in any real-world situation (leaving aside 20/20 hindsight)

If someone produced scripted code for me that was dependant on bash (or zsh/tcsh/mksh/ etc.) for no good reason, I'd seriously question their ability.

The only thing in question is whether you are the point-haired boss of Cave Jclson, the RPG programmer moaning about the kids and their modern structured programming.
