   A *large* number of people, including some package maintainers who  
still write scripts with ifconfig, route, arp, back-ticks for command  
substitution, iwconfig, for I in (seq $A $B) constructs and lots more  
of ancient and deprecated technology.

   E.g.:

[alessandro@hal9k ~]$ grep ifconfig /etc/init.d/*
/etc/init.d/bind9:    if [ -z "$(/sbin/ifconfig $IFCONFIG_OPTS)" ]; then
[alessandro@hal9k ~]$ lsb_release -d
Description:    Debian GNU/Linux 7.6 (wheezy)
[alessandro@hal9k ~]$


   Old habits die hard.
