Here's what shellcheck currently says:

printf '\r%s%*s' "$msg_" "$(( $( tput cols ) -${#msg_} ))"
       ^-------^ SC2183 (warning): This format string has 3 variables, but is passed 2 arguments.

printf '%*s' $(tput cols) | tr ' ' "${ch_}"
       ^---^ SC2183 (warning): This format string has 2 variables, but is passed 1 arguments.
             ^----------^ SC2046 (warning): Quote this to prevent word splitting.

Here's what I wanted or expected to see:

printf '\r%s%*s' "$msg_" "$(( $( tput cols ) -${#msg_} ))"
       ^-------^ SC2183 (warning): This format string has 2 variables, but is passed 2 arguments.

printf '%*s' $(tput cols) | tr ' ' "${ch_}"
       ^---^ SC2183 (warning): This format string has 1 variables, but is passed 1 arguments.
             ^----------^ SC2046 (warning): Quote this to prevent word splitting.
