Powershell is a huge improvement over cmd. However; much like Windows, it is full of complicated gotchas and edge cases. Bash has them too, but Bash makes concurrency and parallelization extremely simple, so despite it's absolutely bananas syntax and rules for hash tables and arrays, it is superior IMO. Bash also makes it simple to write your own more complex utilities in any language and call them from bash. Linux makes it simples to implement new kernel tech and Bash makes it simple to interact with the kernel.
Windows... You have to wait until someone in WDG decides some existing idea is good and then also wait for them to get support to implement the idea, then wait to see how that whole thing goes. So yeah Powershell is great for interacting with Windows. But Windows thinks you're a dumb shit so you can only do what Windows already lets you do.
