I really don't understand this point, its a script language, how old is it doesn't make any difference. I've come accross some Powershell scripts that were unreadable down to its verbosity with certain things, and if you don't already know all the flags and options for it, it's hopeless to try and understand.

Both serve a purpose, neither are 'evil'.
