Keep in mind that the busybox shell is very small compared against for
example bash. You pay for this advantage in terms of memory footprint
with a lot of restrictions, especially in the fancier areas of shell
programming like support for functions, aliases, signal handling, etc.

If you want to do fancy shell stuff, the use a real shell. Yes,  bash
*is*  ten times as big as any of the Busybox shells, but you've asked
for all these features :-)

Best regards,

Testing can show the presense of bugs, but not their absence.
