The problem mostly stems from the fact that MacOS folks don't have compatible Unix utils to the Linux folks, and the majority of developers are on MacOS but everything deploys on Linux. The easiest way to fix this is to install GNU utils on mac so you're using the same bash and system tools everywhere.

That is one problem, but there are others: assuming things like current working directory, assuming certain tools are installed and failing badly when it's not (e.g. doesn't do anything but no error, has the wrong behaviour and no warning), and things like that.
