> Maybe I'm unique, but I kind of like bash. I don't see why it shouldn't be my default shell except "Well, if it didn't exist in the 80s, it won't exist now" (It could also be a licensing issue, but as a user I don't really care about that). Where's the beef? If you like/want it, then just make it your default shell. All it takes is "pkg install bash" and "chsh". I happen to find the default /bin/sh (Almquist shell) provides just about everything I care about in bash, while being much lighter weight and less full of security holes, but if I ever want bash all I have to do is type "bash" from my sh prompt.
