It looks like the main problem people have with PowerShell is slow startup. You should probably work on making it snappy as main priority.

As far as module problems are in question, this is IMO not really fair - you can't expect that every team there have the same standards regarding how modules should work, no matter if the team is from Microsoft or not. The best you could do is perhaps form a consulting / standards enforcing team for MS grown modules.

I love PowerShell, its really poster child for how projects should be done on GH.

And I agree with you about REST API - I never use anything else to explore it (including postman and friends) - I am simply more productive in pwsh. We love it in company so much that we always create powershell REST API client for our services by hand (although some generators are available) in order to be in spirit of the language; all automatic tests are done with it, using awesome Pester 5.

Thanks for all the great work. PowerShell makes what I do joy to that point that I am always in it.
