Right, I observed the same thing when I was testing this, but figured
it was better to be explicit in both cases.
thinkpad ~ # strace -f -e clone /bin/bash -c '/usr/bin/wg syncconf
wgnet0 <(/usr/bin/wg-quick strip wgnet0)' 2>&1 | grep clone | wc -l

thinkpad ~ # strace -f -e clone /bin/bash -c 'exec /usr/bin/wg
syncconf wgnet0 <(/usr/bin/wg-quick strip wgnet0)' 2>&1 | grep clone |
wc -l

thinkpad ~ # strace -f -e clone /bin/bash -c 'exec /usr/bin/wg
syncconf wgnet0 <(exec /usr/bin/wg-quick strip wgnet0)' 2>&1 | grep
clone | wc -l
