I was about to comment with my usual 'why not PowerShell', but it seems the author acknowledges this anyway at the end:

This is why I use Plan9's rc shell for a lot of my scripting needs. It's dramatically nicer to write but even more nice to read.

Yeah, PowerShell and nushell are pretty cool, I hope they gain more adoption.

I keep intending to give nushell a serious try, but I'm too set in my ways :(
