Powershell gives the best of both worlds: readable command names in scripts, and simple Bash-like shortcuts when you type stuff in the terminal.

Is this really the "best of both worlds" or does this just double the number of commands you have the learn?

Since you don't have to learn the aliases, you can use the full command names in the interactive shell, it doesn't double anything.
