In most cases, I'd be more comfortable with:

    export BUBBA=$(echo bubba)  # limit the scope of the damage.

Note the serialization concerns.  In neither case is the set value available

Pipelines provides considerable concurrence for its built-in stages,
but CMS command stages are relentlessly single-threaded.
