Once upon a time there were small modutils which treated insmod a synonym of
modprobe to make life easier. Hardly anyone had accepted that. Indeed, it is
way hard to correct (=cleanup) the scripts which are dated 1 A.C. but are
still considered standard. A lot of man-hours are being spent to teach &
learn all the quirks that scripts contain. Weak attempts to put it clear
what are BB standard have been made but they all have successfully gone in
vain.

I think there is no need to copy and feed bad habits. No need to be a
drop-in replacement for everything, thus, for nothing. Those who once felt
the power BB gives them, never will get back to vanilla bloatware volunteer.

So in the absence of standards a standard has to be made by us.
