I have good news and bad news...

This may be an opportunity to notice that the decade's long
deprecation of egrep now causes a warning to stderr too.

    $ egrep . /etc/os-release >/dev/null
    egrep: warning: egrep is obsolescent; using grep -E

I wasn't sure I'd live to see the day that deprecation moved
forward, but here it is. ;-)

One idea for tracking things down which aren't stored in a
place which is reasonable to grep, is a uname script which
overrides the default uname command, logs the usage of -i/-p
and the calling script, then replaces it with -m and exec's
the real uname.  (Which may be just what you were already
planning.)
