I love zsh’s variable & filename expansion features! But I switched to bash after using zsh for a long time because zsh is less standard, not installed by default, can be a bit of a pain when doing lots of ssh work or on machines I don’t control. Bash is always there.
Zsh is also really heavy, or it was last time I checked. Larger binary & slower startup time than bash, and lots of features I don’t use. Modules, calendar, tcp, ftp client ... that’s a lot of stuff in the shell that is arguably better put into separate executables.
