Indeed.

In the user environment yes, but not necessarily in the build
environment.
What NixOS does is that the system has /usr/bin/env and /bin/sh, but the
build environment only has /bin/sh.

Good idea.
I’ll commit these changes.

That’s inherited from Nix. My first reaction at the time was the same
as yours, but in practice, I found it convenient that only 3 or 4
characters are needed to disambiguate.
More importantly, I rarely type in /nix/store file names, let alone use
tab completion in there (it’s crowded!).
Thanks for your feedback!
