       | Note that bash's version is slightly different but pretty close.
       | Also, bash supports `lastpipe` nowadays so you don't have to use
       | this as a workaround for that issue, and `< <()` is more often
       | the useful thing for custom pipeline composability, and without
       | suffering from the "only one coprocess may exist" limitation.
