For additional background, the reason why eval was being used at all was
because setting a variable for a specific execution of a command does not work
when calling it directly, as in:
```bash
debug() { "$@"; }
debug SOMETHING=foo env | grep SOMETHING # causes error - bash:
SOMETHING=foo: command not found
SOMETHING=foo env | grep SOMETHING # this works fine
debug2() { eval "$@"; }
debug2 SOMETHING=foo env | grep SOMETHING # this works, but requires nested
quoting of arguments
```
