Convention?
We usually expect to run the binary in /usr/local/bin instead of
/usr/bin if there're binary with same name in both location.
The intend's shown in the old profile code, i.e. we append
/usr/local/bin to PATH before appending /usr/bin.
But, both /bin and /usr/bin is existed in PATH before sourcing
/etc/profile, then the unintentional effect.
I would like to go as far as:
PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:$PATH
