Ok, I might have gotten somewhere.

Check my github repository named TugaRevoBTC for the entire code.

Code:

send_many(){
  load_addr_data
  count=0
  backcptb='""'
  min_conf=6
  comm1="Periodic payments"
  replcbl=true
  conf_targ=6
  est_mde=CONSERVATIVE

  val=$(printf "%.9f" $(echo $(bitcoin-cli -testnet getbalance) / "$num_addr" | bc -l))
  printf "Value to send: %.8f BTC\n" "$val"
  while true
  do
    echo "Confirm with YES or cancel with NO (caps matter)"
    read -r -p '> ' opt
    case $opt in
      "YES")
            obj_init="\""
            json_obj='{'
            for i in "${addr_arr[@]}"
            do
              ((count++))
              json_obj+="\"$i\""
              json_obj+=":"
              if [ "$count" -lt "$num_addr" ]; then
                json_obj+="$val,"
              else
                json_obj+="$val}"
              fi
            done
            obj_end+='"'
            json_final=$(echo $json_obj | jq '.')
            printf "bitcoin-cli -testnet sendmany  %s %s%s%s %d %s\n" "$backcptb" "$obj_init" "$json_final" "$obj_end" $min_conf "$comm1"
            return 1
            ;;
      "NO") echo "Action cancelled!"
            return 2
            ;;
    esac
  done
}

I just hope bitcoin-cli accepts the command the way I did it here! I haven't tested it yet. Bed time for now!
Any suggestions/corrections are greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Psy

Edited;
I just noticed something I can improve, at least visually. I can just add the leading ' " ' and the trailing ' " ' statically in that printf instead of passing each one as parameters.
