I feel like that should be reversed. If you’re writing a tiny script, the odds that you’ll make a critical mistake is pretty low (I hope).

As others have pointed out, you can tune shellcheck / ignore certain warnings, if they’re truly noise to you. Personally, I view it like mypy: if it yells at me, I’ve probably at the very least gone against a best practice (like reusing a variable name for something different). Sometimes, I’m fine with that, and I direct it to be ignored, but at least I’ve been forced to think about it.
