Compiling to bash seems awesome, but on the other hand I don't think anyone other than the person who wrote it in amber will run a bash file that looks like machine-generated gibberish on their machine.
I disagree. People run Bash scripts they haven't read all the time.
Hell some installers are technically Bash scripts with a zip embedded in them.
