sh code blocks are different in that they don't really have a ":results
value" option in the same way as most code blocks. Two options would be
to either
1. remove the "echo $HOME" line from your code blocks, or
2. change the '(sbe "test-sh") formula to '(second (second (sbe "test-sh")))

Nothing wrong, you just weren't aware of the idiosyncrasies of the sh
code blocks. I suppose that we could change the behavior of ":results
value" on sh blocks such that it only returns the last line of output,
but depending on who you ask "value" means different things on sh blocks
(e.g., possibly the return value of the last statement $?).
