Thanks! That was my goal. I think simplicity is important for security AND maintainability.
If you change the backup approach, you can always tweak the script so it
will use the new approach (and hopefully gracefully transition to it).

Also: I just noticed that since it no longer generates a log file, this line:
      msg="$(gettext -s "Backup failed. See details in log file ${LOG}”)”
should be:
      msg="$(gettext -s "Backup failed.")"
