Doesn't matter if bash is included in the distro.
Users are not required
to use bash as their default shell.
Bash is not the default shell with the BSDs.
Slackware does not install a default /etc/skel. That
is an exercise for
the user. That is a big reason I continue using Slackware -- Patrick
does not presume how anybody should use their computers. He provides a
base operating system and let's everybody decide what they want to do.
My point was *most* users on *most* distros have a ~/.bashrc file, whether they
know it or not, and whether they consciously or not do anything that may be
affected by anything in it. Some environments get pretty big:
