Yes it can. I've created s6 run scripts programmed in /bin/sh.

Laurent Bercot *discourages* using /bin/sh in favor of the execline
language (http://www.troubleshooters.com/linux/execline.htm), but s6
run scripts can be created in almost any language, including /bin/sh.

Not at all: I'd consider it almost a showstopper. Fortunately, s6
enables you to program run scripts (and finish scripts) in /bin/sh.
