Personally I really really hate this change

App::Ack was the first I noted to make this horrid change and I always
revert the shebang line to reflect my production perl

I (very) often work on "other" perls than the one that is installed and
to make testing these with modules (like DBI, DBD::Oracle and many many
more, I temporary change my $PATH to have the perl I am testing first

In that perl, App::Ack is NOT (yet) installed.

For some/many scripts, it doesn't really matter if the script is
installed or not, but for all scripts that invoke modules it *does*
matter.

I certainly do NOT see this change as "more modern"

Perl has been configured to use $Config{startperl}. Use it!

$ perl -V:startperl
startperl='#!/pro/bin/perl';
