Undefined variables or misspelled variables are a common source of bugs. When coding in bash, I always set -u. Really want this in rc. Suggest:

flag u [+|-]

To paraphrase bash:

Treat unset variables other than the special ‘*’ as an error when performing
variable expansion. An error message will be written to the standard error,
and a non-interactive shell will exit.
