Oh no, it has nothing to do with luck. It's on purpose that /bin/sh is a 
link to /bin/bash on slackware. This allows to define a default shell 
for those who leave the field empty. So, if you want, you may define 
another default shell.
ash is quite popular on slackware:

    /ash (Kenneth Almquist's ash shell)/

        /A lightweight (92K) Bourne compatible shell. Great for machines
        with low memory, but does not provide all the extras of shells
        like bash, tcsh <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tcsh>, and zsh
        <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zsh>. Runs most shell scripts
        compatible with the Bourne shell. Note that under Linux, most
        scripts seem to use at least some bash-specific syntax. The
        Slackware setup scripts are a notable exception, since ash is
        the shell used on the install disks. NetBSD uses ash as its
        /bin/sh./

There are many other choices than the old "sh".
