Could you try to replace the current command with one that
neither needs "-E" nor "-r"?
Your suggestions fixes antique Linux systems but not current
non-Linux Posix systems (and contradicts the documentation).

Regexes tend to be write-only. Not sure I can parse what that tries to
do, to rewrite it in basic RE that posix sed supports.

What do you mean by contradicts docs?
