От bash(1):

          -e      Exit immediately if a pipeline (which may consist  of  a
                  single  simple command),  a subshell command enclosed in
                  parentheses, or one of the commands executed as part  of
                  a  command  list  enclosed  by braces (see SHELL GRAMMAR
                  above) exits with a non-zero status.  The shell does not
                  exit  if  the  command that fails is part of the command
                  list immediately following a  while  or  until  keyword,
                  part  of  the  test  following  the  if or elif reserved
                  words, part of any command executed in a && or  ││  list
                  except  the  command  following  the final && or ││, any
                  command in a pipeline but the last, or if the  command’s
                  return  value  is being inverted with !.  A trap on ERR,
                  if set, is executed before the shell exits.  This option
                  applies to the shell environment and each subshell envi-
                  ronment separately (see  COMMAND  EXECUTION  ENVIRONMENT
                  above), and may cause subshells to exit before executing
                  all the commands in the subshell.

К сожалению, я не являюсь достаточно творческим для размышления, почему это было бы опасно, кроме "остальной части сценария не будет выполняться" или "это могло бы возможно, возможно, замаскировать настоящие проблемы".
