Let's spell out 'shellcheck' when referring to it rather than call it
'SC'. And instead of "but I prefer..." let's write

 # shellcheck complains about a useless cat, but using a redirect here is
 # harder to read

or something like that. Don't tell my cat-loving daughter that I just
wrote "a useless cat"!

Same comment as above.

Hmm, I'm not sure about this one. $check is an arbitrary path, which means
it can have spaces, then =, and then an arbitrary value, which means it can
contain spaces. If there are multiple check path=value pairs then
separation by space is a bad idea, and any deliminator really is. It seems
like each pair should be quoted, i.e.

 check = "path1=value1" "path2=value2"

and then that should be managed here.
