In this context we just want to stop the while loop when a condition is reached. In this context either syntax would work. However using [[ ... ]] with while is a good habit because in some old shells any variables created within a [ ... ] loop are not available after the loop finishes.
The syntax within the brackets is governed by different rules (see man sh).
Coincidentally the syntax for some test commands is the same as the syntax for some conditional expressions (including -ge ).
Qualification: I have just tried both with an ancient /bin/sh and the my [[ .. -ge .. ]] syntax does not work at all!
