Absolutely, the syntax and API isn’t exactly easy, but it is miles better because it’s both more familiar to other programming languages and because it is verbose.
I argue that the complaint some have about its verbosity is of little meaning, those people have just used the shell so much that they naturally remember a lot of commands, what they’re used for and their specific syntax, but for a beginner it’s difficult to string everything together, because a lot of tools are of independent origin. Regardless, Powershell should by default have quite a few aliases to the commands/functions with long names so it’s not like you can’t have the best of both worlds
