The Bourne shell certainly has problems, but IMHO fish should have stuck with POSIX syntax when it's "good enough" (TM). Stuff like $(code) vs (code) makes Fis

The Bourne shell certainly has problems, but IMHO fish should have stuck with POSIX syntax when it's "good enough" (TM). Stuff like $(code) vs (code) makes Fish feel like it just wants to be different.
Things I think are big problems:
* Needing to quote practically everything
* Needing to remember if/fi, case/esac, while/do/done, for/in/do/done, etc.
