I would use IPython as a scripting language. It has a slow startup

And how, in the messy world of cross-platform scripting, would you
locate the interpreter? The whole point of this script is to attempt
three different shebangs, effectively.
Well, yes, but personally I'd prefer to just run with "#!/usr/bin/env
python3". Then the command line will say "python3: not found" or
similar, I can fix my environment, and thereafter everything works
better. Rather than complex magic inside a script.
If we're going to accept the approach though, I'd rather the shebang was
just "#!/bin/sh". There's _always_ a /bin/sh, and a number of BSDish
systems do not have a /usr/bin/env (it tends to land in /bin instead).
