That's easy enough to explain. The ERR trap is triggered wherever the -e
option, if it were set, would cause the shell to exit. There are three
places where a command fails: the `false', the group command (pipeline) on
the RHS of the outer pipeline, and the outer pipeline itself. Any of
these faiures would cause the shell to exit, but you don't have -e set.
