Bash hashes a command after it has been discovered. `type` is a shell
builtin but it does not hash a command after it discovers a command:
$ type man
man is /usr/bin/man
$ type man
man is /usr/bin/man
$ man
What manual page do you want?
$ type man
man is hashed (/usr/bin/man)
$
Why is this the case? I thought it would make sense for `type` to hash a
command after it found one.
Thank you
