They didn't reinvent the wheel. Bash was intended for a Unix environment with all the corresponding utilities.
PowerShell was designed for a Windows/.NET environment, which is undeniably different, and they also took the opportunity to create an object oriented shell instead of a text oriented one.
I also like C# but I do feel it makes a pretty poor scripting/shell language.
I do think SSH is long overdue, but based on the post it looks like the developers have always been on the right track - management just wouldn't let them do it. Really glad this is changing.
