/bin/bash won't work on every system for example NixOS some other systems may have bash in /usr/bin or elsewhere

NixOS didn't do /usr merge?

Binaries are not in /usr/bin or /bin except for /bin/sh and /usr/bin/env. Programs should not assume fixed paths for binaries and instead look for them in $PATH.
