You can install it manually if you want. The reason they did it is their version of bash is ancient since they don't want GPLv3 in the operating system.

- kking50 7y agoNooooo! Don't make me INSTALL a standard-compliant shell!! Make me install a NON-standard-compliant shell. It's better to have an old version of a standard-compliant shell be the default. Users can easily install the latest bash/zsh, but make that a personal choice. The license isn't a valid reason to swap out bash.
- octoberrust 7y agoI'm pretty sure bash still comes with the system. It's only the default shell which is easily configurable.
