I think we have different definitions of support. What constantly amazes me is how similar many OSes are - except Windows. DSC hasn't changed that, even though Mr. Snover is a very clever guy. If you're in a homogeneous environment, DSC is probably great. But it's 2016, and environments are heterogenous. Even shipping an SSH client and server with Windows would go a long way as far as interop goes - which may be happening AFAIK (OK, I admit I love SSH, but it's so useful). PowerShell feels a lot like the xkcd n+1 standards thing. I don't use bash any more, but it (along with ash/dash) is the de facto standard.
Sorry I can't get more excited about this, which is especially sad because my background is QBasic -> VB -> C#.
