Oh and one other thing I was curious about. Did Mitchell comment on why he wrote it in nushell? I've not really messed around with that myself yet.

Would people recommend it? I feel like I have such huge inertia for changing shells at this point that I've rarely seriously considered it.

he seems like dislikes go and rust. and likely ts. go and ts were fully legit for such work.

zig is too low level.

Nushell has great sugar coating but mishandles basics like it will eat errors and get into impossible code paths on control-C. I have given up on it.
