> The short terse commands and the really awkward, confusing, mistake prone syntax When used in an interactive shell short commands save time and effort. And it is easy to learn and remember them because in everyday work you need only about 10 commands. For some some commands which I use a lot I have one-two letter aliases to type even less e. g. i=fgrep. It makes shell scripts less readable for someone who come from windows and and don't know even common shell commands, but for someone who use shell at least from time to time it should be easy to read.
