murex also passes objects. The difference is the objects are passed as UNIX byte streams but with an additional data-type meta field. So processes written in murex can have PowerShell-like objects but at the same time standard POSIX utilities can still be added to the pipeline with no additional effort.

That latter point is, in my opinion, the biggest hurdle to using PowerShell.

Of course, it ultimately boils down to personal preference and for some, .NET support is a killer feature.
