Think we should switch in 14+. My main argument is that shell one-liners in documentation are almost always written in Bourne syntax. I believe the fact that we're an outlier is confusing the sort of new users we hope to attract with thinks like Raspberry-pi and cloud images. As a long-time user, it even trips me up when I do some work on a FreeBSD box after spending most of my time on other systems. -- Brooks
