I use PowerShell for quite some time (mostly windows/.NET guy here) and it would be great tool except one thing: the amount of not obvious quirks is astounding and not really decreased over the years. Probably because of avoidance of breaking changes, which is understandable where there are tons on powershell scripts out there. But for for someone who uses it mostly as a shell to write one liners or occasionally write a script not longer than 30 lines of code, it's really discouraging when you encounter again some unexpected behavior (even though you thought you learned powershell "good enoguht" couple years ago).

Yes, this could be problematic. But any language has this kind of quirks (rust, ruby etc.). The problem is not like with C where you have quirks forever.

Once you learn it, you know about them.
