I don't see many Windows users hanging out in the CLI for extended periods of time, either. Even though OP wasn't serious about fedora nixing grep, surely you see the lack of equivalence in that argument.

When Windows users want to hang out in the CLI they virtualise Linux or use cmder[0].

I would argue that they used cygwin, and now they have the option of using WSL- which I have been using for the last two months, and thus far has met my CLI needs.

Windows subsystem for Linux is what I spend most of my time in now.
