Pure Bash Bible
> does NetBSD sh or FreeBSD sh have them.
Yes and yes. My FreeBSD machine has not even been updated in 5 years, if that helps.
> What's the point of "pure sh" if it's restricted to specific versions of shells.
The aforementioned features have been implemented for a very long time. The issues with old versions of dash I mentioned were crashes for very simple things, which is simply a bug rather than some fancy new-fangled feature that was yet to be implemented. Plus, the bible specifically listed workarounds for them.
dylanaraps has quite a prolific collection of shell programs, and they run on a variety of operating systems. Most notably, pfetch[1] runs on Linux, Android, NetBSD, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, Minix, Haiku, macOS, Solaris and IRIX. I assure you that he is fully aware of the importance of compatibility.
His pure Bash bible even has very thorough warnings for Bash versions required, since macOS uses Bash 3.2 (released in 2006) due to licensing reasons.

I have finally installed Linux From Scratch! (Yes neofetch was necessary)
If it has a tarball it can be installed and pfetch does have one.

VanillaOS logo for pfetch
If you know pfetch, I recently rewrote it in Rust and also added a bunch of logos, including one for Vanilla OS.

SteamOS logo for pfetch
The logo is also backwards compatible with the original pfetch by dylanaraps written in POSIX sh, if you prefer that.

Updated Pop! OS logo in pfetch-rs
If you have used pfetch before, I rewrote it in Rust, resulting in an about 10x faster execution time. It also includes a new ascii logo for Pop! OS that was made by Github user ThomasM92 for the original pfetch, but was sadly never merged.

Pure Bash Bible
Do you have any specific examples to cite? The snippets are meant to be run in POSIX-compliant shells like dash/yash/ash/etc, not just Bash in compatibility mode.
In fact, there used to be a section which listed workarounds[1] for bugs in dash, but they have since been fixed[2]. If you are still using an old version of dash, you may need to use them.

"Immortal" Bash scripts, using inline Nix and a special header block
Personally, I would steer clear of a script that installs dependencies on it's own. Us sysadmins prefer to manage our own dependencies, generally speaking. Instead consider a README that outlines how to meet/install dependencies for the script, or try to find ways to write your script in pure Shell or Bash without using tools like awk, jq, etc. Consider having a look at the Pure Sh Bible for examples of how to do many useful things in pure Sh.
