Oh! My day of not using bash have certainly come to a middle. Zsh is much saner: it has .zshenv for the initializations you always want (and it is still good practice to use a test to not have them override a temporary change) and .zshrc for interactive shells where you can put things that will change the behavior, like aliases, and could break scripts.
