Thanks for sharing! This is definitely something I will look into, I am all in favor to simplify the current implementation of finding the "default" OS network interface.

You'd better use the default route and not some random IP, particularly DNS IPs which people often meddle with.

  # IPv4 default route only
  uname
  Darwin$ route -n get 0.0.0.0 | grep interface | cut -d ':' -f2
  Linux$ route -nv  |grep ^0.0.0.0 | awk '{print $NF}'
