Using libimage-exiftool-perl version 12.40 in Linux Mint 21.3.
When i use exiftool in a script with shebang #!/usr/bin/env <excutable>, the exiftool read it as an env script not <executable> script.
#!/usr/bin/env python3
print("Hello World!")

Would not be better identify it as Python 3 script? Or, even better:
File Type : env script / python script
File Type Extension :
MIME Type : text/x-env / text/x-python3
Also, File Type Extension is empty. Should be "py"?
I don't know if ExifTool should be changed here. Presumably it would have knowledge about the "env" argument format and parse all arguments to determine the utility that is being run. If it did this for "env", it should do this for other similar utilities. I see this as being a rabbit hole that I don't want to venture into.
