If you want that same ability from bash, it's available [0]. However, it interacts with C FFI, so it's lower level.

Sorry, but it's absolutely not the _same_ experience, but much harder and less integrated, Also let's not forget for a minute that bash tosses characters, and not objects.

There's a very long road for any shell to get where pwsh is within MS's ecosystem (and even within .NET Core/GNU ecosystem). And I can easily imagine .NET Core wrapping DBUS and other COM-like facilities available for GNU OSs.
