#!/bin/bash won't work on, say, nixos, and as you noted, many non-linux platforms. It's a few more characters to do something (more) portable! You're right that docker (or something like nix flakes, which are lighter-weight/easier to introspect imo) are probably a better solution in the long run, though.
