Bail out! is the wording in the original TAP spec.  We should not change
it unless we plan to abandon compatibility with that spec. (which I
would advise against).

See https://testanything.org/tap-specification.html

The reason "Bail out!" is preferred (IMO) is that it is less likely to be emitted
in other test output, and is more 'grepable'.

This would get a NAK from me.
