Considering huge portions of the manual are dedicated to explaining the most
fundamental aspects of shell functionality (how commands are resolved, how to
redirect files, what a pipe-line is, &c.), and AFAICT it's been that way since i
was a child, it kind of seems like that assumption went out the window a pretty
long time ago

But i don't feel strongly about this cow, obv. No need to let it in if it'll
just make a mess
