fish was a great shell when I tried it, but it's unfortunate that so much is written in bash. The most interesting shell by far was xonsh though a python powered shell

Honestly this looks like a perfect way to make both python and bash more complex in a single move

Fish's main attraction was never its scripting language - it was its UI. You can run bash scripts from fish (using bash of course), while still enjoying its bit more modern UI. Bash was never a challenge to fish. Nushell, on the other hand, is a different case.
