The Biggest Lie You're Told About Shell Programming? A response to Terminalforlife
Terminalforlife recently released a video in which he argues that a reliance on external programs, particularly in shell scripting instructional content, is the biggest lie of shell programming. In many cases, calling out to an external program is slower and less efficient (in terms of resource utilization) than simply writing the equivalent functionality yourself directly within the shell language itself.

I disagree with him that this is a serious problem, and lay out my reasoning why in this video.

This was recorded away from my usual setup, so the audio quality isn't as good as I'd like. Apologies for that.
