Thanks @pablobm . I think I need to mull over this because I have an initial reaction against it.

> 1. It's the form used in the Rails Guides, and therefore should be better known to new contributors.

That's a good reason. 

> 2\. It is clearer that we are running scripts bundled with the app.

I think it's a bit confusing though, since most of the things are coming from 3rd-party software. So we're just adding wrappers and adding indirection

> 5\. It's more autocomplete-friendly.

Do you mean that autocomplete as in `bin/anno<tab>` works whereas `bundle exec anno<tab>` doesn't? Perhaps that's worthwhile too.

The downsides I see are:

* Using `bundle exec` is common across many non-rails projects, like running jekyll sites etc. It's certainly in my own muscle memory!
* `bundle exec` allows you to run anything from any gem that you have installed, without having to create/maintain any binstubs
