Its almost obvious.  Notice that the BSD folks identify with a devilish
looking fellow, our Daemon. This implies that most of the FreeBSD
community are probably pagans, and would resist any shell that is "Bourne
Again"  :)

Another reason comes from my best friend: "All the wannabe hackers and
Script Kiddies practice on Linux, using bash, and all thier scripts are
written for bash."  So this makes it in his mind, a security issue.

Smooth Roads,
