Hey let's not pretend like it's better in the world of Linux/Unix/etc. Now that is one hot mess of everything, just as much as Powershell. It's just those have things we're used to, and kinda learned to (mostly) abstract away without the presence of an over-bearing behemoth such as Microsoft which makes such a thing almost impossible.
As a comparison (to most of us semi-knowledgeable windows / powershell users), ask any semi-knowledgeable Linux user about the difference between Ksh/Bash (or that weird one that Ubuntu pushed and aliased to one of the above for extra confusion). Or ask them if any of them remember how tf to use SED or AWK without looking up the docs because those damn things are made by satan in the depths of hell. Or how to use parameters inside shell scripts, and the various incantations they have to slice and dice the params.
