With the broken quoting the test wouldn't even parse correctly, but there's also the '==' instead of POSIX '=' (of the shells I tested, busybox ash, bash and ksh (93 and OpenBSD) accept '==', dash and zsh do not), and 'print 2' from Python 2 days. (I assume the test failing due to 3 != 4 is intentional or immaterial.)
