So not an option against the competition that has no issues supporting Windows as first class citizen.

Windows needs to die though. The sooner it dies, the sooner we can all just assume that everything has bash and a bunch of excellent compilers installed.

There plenty of OS that aren't POSIX clones, Windows is not alone.

Anyone that cares about bash on Windows can install mingw or WSL, preferably WSL2.

Tablets don't have CLIs by default.

Even if UNIX clones ruled the world, chsh is a thing.
