because when I am in a shell I don't want to spend days typing out and tabbing forever trying to write some quick one liner command I'll never look at again. I just want a bunch of quick and easy to compose functions to just do what I want, and then move on. I don't need it to be readable, just quick and functional which bash is.
for scripting I'd personally use neither.

Even without the hyperbole you have a comically exaggerated idea of how long it takes to write quick one-liners in PowerShell. For me personally, it helps a lot that I don't have to look up cryptic three-letter command names, obtuse switches, or the precise sed incantation to glue things together.
