Bash was the first scripting language I became “good” in too! The skill seems to be regularly devalued in this community, and there is no surprise why (what is collaboration and maintenance for $500).
However, it’s hard to ignore why bash masters are born in the first place if better tools exist - shouldn’t the best tool win in the long run?
My take is lone wolf hackers working in corporate /_/nix constrained environment who become proficient, prolific and efficient win the corporate version of “survival of the fittest”.
