Like shell scripts? Cause I mean, I agree, I think this world would be a better place if starting tomorrow shell scripts were no longer a thing. Just probably not what you meant.

Shell scripts are a byproduct of the shell existing. Generations of programmers have cut their teeth in CLI environments. Anything that made shell scripts "no longer a thing" would necessarily destroy the interactive environment, and sounds like a ladder-pull to the curiosity of future generations.

Pretty much agreed - once any sort of complicated logic enters a shell script it's probably better off written in C/Rust/Go or something akin to that.
