You can solve `-rHInE` with just an alias though.

Then you go back to incompatibility.
Aliases are only active in your interactive shell.
Exactly, if grep behaves differently in your scripts and your shell, there's no point in not using ripgrep (or ag, or silver searcher, or whatever strikes your fancy).
The difference is - your script works out of the box, or you need to install ripgrep.
