> That's probably because for daily tasks we have much better tooling in Windows

ssh, docker, ansible, kubernetes, grafana, prometheus, etc... All coming from Linux/unix. This statement is clueless. Most of the cloud is not running microsoft, and for a good reason.

To automate, we have python, which has a much better syntax. It's pointless to use powershell.

And it takes a microsoft head, without knowledge of programming language's history to say that powershell's ideas actually come from powershell. Method chaining/fluent interface with a pipe instead of a dot does not look that new.

Also, some attempts have been to implement posh clones on unix. Being redundant with either perl/python or bash/zsh, none succeeded.
