For me bash is a weird exception to the rule "code is easier to write than it is read". I'm never doing anything crazy in a shell a script but it's easy to just ask ChatGPT to whip it up for me and I will read it to verify. Perhaps anybody who can't validate the output is just as likely to write an accidentally-destructive script the old fashioned way.
