Let's be real, the minority of people understand bash. It is a terrible language with tons of footguns[0], albeit a very useful language and still worth learning. The number of ~/.claude/settings.json I've seen with "permissions": { "allow": ["Bash(find *)"]} I've seen is crazy[1]. Hell, most people I talk to think `find` is a tool that is used for searching for files. I mean... it does that... along with arbitrary code execution ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
