I have used PowerShell since its inception, and still believe that the Monad manifesto is very relevant. However in recent years I have switched to Python for this same reason.
It’s more widely available, especially outside of Windows it already has greater support for advanced features. PowerShell is not a first class contemporary to Python on Linux.
Quite easy to learn. A lot of default learn materials, tutorials, examples.
You’ll also be able to find people in market with Python experience more readily (especially going forward) if you need to hire talent for your company.
