ShellCheck doesn't find any issues with this script.
REMEMBER!
ShellCheck ONLY checks validity and syntax of the shell in use, and NOT ALL shells.
For that is is simply superb. However don't expect it to check validity and syntax of transient commands.
A deliberate simple example from ShellCheck.
As you can see, 'sed' and 'sleep' will create an error and has absolutely no idea what 'junk_command' is.
Hope this helps.
