Every bashism imported not only bloats the shell, but also breaks its
compatibilty, and stops bashisms being detected, so these non-portably
written scripts error out in Solaris, FreeBSD and most Debians.

So why is this bashism integrated in hush if it "bloats the shell" ???

The real pity is people who write bash scripts starting #!/bin/sh, and
then complain that sh isn't bash. It isn't!

Yes i totally agree, but why don't integrate this bashism in ASH_BASH_COMPAT ?
It doesn't bloat the shell if you don't want it.
