Yes, only one expression is no Problem in all shell implementations I have
tested.

That depends on the situation where the comparison is done.

Both ways are right, yours are only more common.

The error handling of the shell interpreters are deferent, so you can't trust
on that.

Whats isn't a bug? It's a design error. You can't implement a shell
interpreter, that is compatible with the current syntax and don't have the
Problem, that you can inject a expression with the value argument. It's like
strcpy() in C.
