    Here, we are talking about modifying shell commands presented in docs, not 
in `.sh` files. Your point is that the shell _does_ matter right? 
    
    The `.sh` files in Spark all require `bash` -- which is neither here nor 
there in that you can invoke a `bash` script from `zsh` just fine, yes. But all 
of the rest of the Spark docs likewise probably have incompatibilities with 
`zsh`. It's not-unrelated to the fact that Spark internals only work with 
`bash`.
    
    This would at least need to check and fix any other incompatibilities in 
the docs. At that point I wonder if it's worth the little extra friction for 
most users, who will be using `bash`. I'm concerned it's indirectly setting an 
expectation that all of Spark could be fine without `bash` installed.
