Powershell made 2 things gospel and I'm just sad it's going to take 20 years for other operating systems to realize that's the way to do it and something that replaces linux to see it in practice (i.e. it just won't)
1. Auto-complete is by-design part of the language/shell
1. Pre-approved Verb list that prefix commands helps discoverability and usability no end. Still learning? Get-<anything> will literally never cause a problem.
Because of the above get-help <function> can automatically create some fairly useful documentation right away and whoever wrote the code didn't need to do anything. They can significantly add to to help though. Because that mechanism is part of the language it's worth doing literally every user is going to access it, not some blog your wrote 5 years ago I hope is still online.
Passing objects rather than string, whatever maybe it's not the best way, I think it's great. But That's not the only thing PS has to learn from.
If anyone uses the cli and doesn't know how the PS help system works, it's certainly a breath of fresh air to learn.
