Well-behaved 3rd party scripts ought to start Perl via: #! /usr/bin/env perl
Why should the authors of those scripts break them for systems which have /bin/env?
Name one such system. [1]
Hint: the path to env isn't going to change on a standards-compliant system for the same reason that /bin/sh is always found in the same place. See IEEE Std 1003.x-2001 ("POSIX").

[1]: You might actually find a few very old, very broken versions of Linux which don't have a /bin/sh, only a /bin/bash. I've heard such creatures may have a /bin/env rather than a /usr/bin/env, too.
