I used to say this, but Powershell has really proven to me that we need a shell that is also a good scripting language. Powershell has its faults, but it's as good as any scripting language, especially when time is a factor. And it does this without sacrificing its utility as a shell. I haven't spent time with elvish but I think it's moving more in the right direction. Zsh and friends are better than bash but they are still too sh-like and a lot of those conventions are just always going to be problems.
