i agree with that. i almost never create scripts though, because i work on multiple computers at once, and copying and adapting commandline snippets is easier than scripts that don't necesarily work the same on every machine. so i like improvements in the interactive experience like fish mostly focuses on. but if i were to write a script i would not use fish either.

that said, a language that focuses on shell scripts could be a good idea because there is not much work done yet in that space
