I've seen this. Automated a bunch in well documented PowerShell modules which I trained staff on and was all taken out when I left.
Because the PM said, "If it can be in a script it should be in C#!"
Of course the C# programmers didn't like being taken off of productive work to build infrastructure tooling which was working perfectly well in PowerShell where it belonged. So they quit. So did the remaining DBA staff. All of them.
So the company told their customers this feature was broken and would not be updated in the foreseeable future. That was a year or two ago.
They could just run the script. But they refuse to on principle. So they suffer and the customers suffer. Companies are great!
