No judgement, just repeating from years of exepreince:

processing command line options for instance) instead of doing somethgin
that is impossible (trying to get bash, sh, csh, ect to give it)
If you want to do option a thats your perogative, b will be easier,
portable, more accurate, give you data in a useable format.
That not an opinion thats a fact. (This goes for any project in any
language: I'm not being a "do it all in perl", heck do it in Python or
Ruby or C, just do it smart. Like hammering a nail with a hammer vs a rock)
