I don't mean to nitpick over a minor issue but bash does also report that a numeric
argument is "required", implying (at least, to my mind) that the built-in
requires a valid argument to be able to act at all. Should bash remain able to exit in
the interactive context, it might make sense to avoid that particular word.
Let's try it. I'll make a change to prevent an interactive shell from
exiting if exit is supplied a non-numeric argument, and we'll see how it
goes.
