This is a pretty informative page, well done. I have two issues with it:

- The page doesn't seem to be linked from anywhere; not the coreutils FAQ, not
  the manual. So discoverability seems rather poor?

- Under "The quotes break my scripts! This is a serious regression.", there's a
  link to https://bugs.gnu.org/25388#11, which is a rant with some
  misinformation and barely even touches breaking scripts (it does touch piping
  to be fair, but again even that part is misinformation-ridden), so it's
  rather confusing. Is it a conscious decision or maybe the wrong post is
  linked?
