I guess it's the trade off between backwards compatibility and readability/correctness/maintainability. Both languages will have technical debt overtime. In my opinion, I would much rather have to rarely update python scripts in exchange to for peace of mind that I can fix/update the script as need be. In my experience, *sh scripts can be fragile and hard to ensure correctness.

Having migrated something recently from python2 to python3, I'll take bash. I actually ported two of the three scripts to bash, and the third one I reluctantly moved to python3 (I needed python-pil). String handling in python3 in my opinion is a tire fire compared to bash.
