After tried zsh, ksh, fish and ash. I prefer bash. I don't like fuzzy completions nor a list potential options on my first tab, I'm used to check man if I forgot some argument and I don't care about all the extra features, all I care is speed and the basics. And in bash I have a fancy prompt, is a lot faster than fish and a bit faster than zsh, I also like ash but it lacks a few things I use.
I see the appealing of other shells (I used them for a while) but I never used the extra features.
is it? oh, in that case bash, unless you write just for you and just for your system anything alse make son sense to me, I'm not gonna add another shell to a remote machine just to run my scripts. And to get used to 2 different, yet similar PL is annoying, after months with fish I always had to rewrite because I was writting bash instead of fish, and I just did little scripts for myself, I guess for anything more important would be even worst.
But how can you tell if the question is about the CLI or the scripting language?

I'm afraid you missed the point of this question. It's not about the CLI - it's about the scripting language :)

Let's just call it a hunch :)
