Technical measures are always better than "remembering". That's what
"#!/bin/bash" is for.
What follows is just a personal opinion. I try to write my scripts to
the highest standards. If I start with #!/bin/sh, and then I write a
bashism, then #!/bin/sh was a lie, and when someone points that out, I
am embarassed and grateful, especially when the fix is really, really
easy. I'm not "everybody", but then, not everybody's script starts
with a lie. Just three of mine :-/
So changing the shbang lines to read #!/bin/bash would suffice, no?
