I think PowerShell would actually be way ahead of Bash. But we have things so much better than Bash. Python/Ruby let you do a lot of amazing stuff (not shells, I know, but still immensely more useful scripting languages than what you can do in Bash).

Also, if you're still using Bash, I'd highly recommend looking at newer shells. Fish is pretty amazing. I've been using it over over a year. There are others too like Zsh.
