Just one of the many reasons to use ZSH.

What shell doesn't have a directory stack?

What's the bash equivalent to zsh's "setopt autopushd"?

I don't know what that is, but does it do more than alias cd='pushd'?

That's essentially what it does, but if you use the "autocd" option as well, you don't need to type "cd" - you can just use the name of a directory as a command. So, "autopushd" would ensure that these operations use the directory stack also.
