I absolutely agree with your statement and that is why I don't care
about the sh link ;). IMO it's the useless link ever. My scripts ask for
dash or bash (and assumed I would use something else, then for this) and
just some old scripts use sh. Btw. if possible I try to write
dash-bash-compatible scripts, e.g. by using printf instead of echo.
