Your script does not contain a single pipe from what I can see, it
uses temporary intermediate files:)

And I really think you should have a look at some of the PDF tools
that are linked from the wiki page on imposition tools. For booklet
imposition many of them are more than sufficient to replace
psutils-based script. I have used both Multivalent Impose as well as
Bookbinder, but I'd say jPDF Tweak looked very promising (what I
missed at a quick try was a way to save and reuse your own
impositions).

No, that is wrong. BAT-files can take arguments too.
