Thanks for the suggestion, but that would make programs using subprocess non-portable.  There is an open issue to use the *default* shell instead of hard coding it (because the sh-alike is not at /bin/sh on, eg, Android), but using the user shell would break lots of programs.  Your suggestion was brought up by a core dev (and rejected) in that issue (issue 16255)
