Not sure what you mean there. && / || are not bashisms. They were already present in the Bourne shell in the 70s. They're also present in csh which make them more portable than if whose syntax is different between Bourne-like shells and csh. Using them in place of if constructs is often considered bad practice though. Note that [ -z "$file" ] would also return true if the script is called with -i '' (likely not a problem in practice)
