Not each of these. AFAIU, :cmd header property in ob-screen defines
which shell to use. Knowing shell name, you can deduce the function name
to be used for variable assignments. See how it is done in
`org-babel-expand-src-block'.
> But if I also see org-babel-shell-initialize in ob-shell that looks like it creates defaliases for each of these to (org-babel-execute:shell) and #'org-babel-variable-assignments:shell.
The convention is for every possible #+begin_src lang to have
org-babel-variable-assignments:LANG.
ob-shell just tries to avoid unnecessary code duplication and instead of
writing identical org-babel-variable-assignments:sh
org-babel-variable-assignments:bash, org-babel-variables-assignents:zsh,
..., it generates them using a macro.

I'm not sure what to do here, nor how to do what you suggest (yet - I've only read it so far, not spent a lot of time experimenting and searching, so I may be able to implement what I think is a solution to what you wrote, but I doubt it'll be what you expect).
AFAIU, you don't need to juggle with macros as ob-shell does. Something
similar to `org-babel-expand-src-block' will do.
