Let a shell parameter operator after a known word pass, so ${PORT:-8080} is not refused (issue 231)

The case-insensitive rule for the mesh's namespace words took ${PORT:-8080},
${SHELL:-/bin/sh}, ${SECRET:?unset} and ${dir:-/tmp} for misspellings, though they
are among the commonest lines of a script or env file. A :-, :=, :+ or :? after the
colon is the shell's, whatever the word's case.
