But this forum explicitly says Non-Unix and, in fact, my question is about bash scripting.

Thanks for your kind reply.

The Programming forum description reads "This forum is for all programming questions. The question does not have to be directly related to Linux and any language is fair game." so NP, OK?

Still the programming forum. It's under non*nix because:

but Linux programming questions are still welcome under programming, it's just there so that people know that questions about programming on other platforms are still ok there.

search for bash script and you'll see that sometimes the scripting question relates to something else- maybe in your distro's forum, maybe in Linux-server if that's what you're scripting on, but I would recommend the Programming forum.
