Comment:
I will not advise users to edit `/etc/shells` or change the login shell.
In the worst case, Terminal will no longer open new windows when the shell
does not launch (e.g. due to library version mismatch, such as an ncurses
update). In this situation, it is quite complicated to get back to a
shell. Advanced users might change their login shell, but for others it is
better to just set it in the Terminal preferences.
