"the fact the latter even calls the former should be an implementation detail" .. this needs to be highllighted more - I think this goes right to the heart of the problem. If tomorrow OP decided to inline whatever features of b.sh they use into a.sh and stop using b.sh itself, users would still expect the exit status for failures in those features to remain the same, so they should have been independent of b.sh in the first place.
