To smaller criticism:

ip has: [[ $addr == */* ]] || addr+="/24"

This is a stupid default, and it is inconsistent to what is done in IPv6. Just leave it out - every configuration needs both the IP and the netmask, a network cannot be configured without it!

Agreed. Somehow I failed to notice this. The default survived for three years! Thanks, - Jouke
