If keeping it short: it's slow, gargantuan (several gorillions lines of
buggy code), Shellshock=E2=84=A2, bashisms.

But, more importantly: it's Gah-NOO.

Seeing people using #!/bin/bash for one-two-three-line scripts triggers
a gag reflex in me. If you absolutely must use scripting for a task,
use /bin/sh if it's simple, or maybe Perl/Lua for something more
complex (but rather use C).
