Xonsh is a fantastic shell. I literally think they are most hindered by the name at this point, since it's one of those clever names that are pronounced in a peculiar way and one that doesn't convey too well that it's really Python + sh in a beautifully consistent design.

It's very easy to switch if you're willing to spend 30 minutes to go through this talk about its design by the author: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uaje5I22kgE

After this short intro you will know how Python and shell interact within xonsh and you'll avoid surprises.

I wish it started faster, but it's a really small price to pay for having Python 3.13 open literally at all times.

I've been mispronouncing it for years as Zonsh... it's Consh.. doh

I'm from S Florida where the conch shell is pronounced konk. It pains me to pronounce xonsh as kontch. Maybe I'll just go with calling it zonk. :-)
