I suppose I'm more optimistic. From my point of view, structures pipelines and some of the goodies that come with it (like better error handling), can make a shell language into a perfectly capable scripting language. I think the big weakness for these new shells is in the small sizes of their library ecosystems. But PowerShell shows what a language of this kind can do with a sizeable ecosystem and some OS integration.
