> The PS and WSL story seemed like they tried to do better but gave up.

The PowerShell story is pretty simple: a cross-platform, object oriented shell. Having used it, I attempted to locate a similar Linux solution, to no avail. I'm tired of cutting text and object translation makes my life a great deal more straightforward.

As for WSFL, it seems "Windows can run everything. Docket support is stellar" is a much more likely story than "we gave up and are slowly becoming Linux with a GUI".
