Why I’m Not Touching MSH (Monad)

Monad is the new command-line tool from Microsoft, and supposedly it is it’s going to be highly cool. Unfortunately, for the time being, I’m not going to touch it.
Why? Well, as strange as it sounds, I’m afraid I’ll like it. The simple reality is that I’m not going to go back to Windows as my main computing platform regardless of how cool it is. And if it were to have some cool features that my shell in Linux or OS X doesn’t have, well…that would just be bad.
I mean, I already use SFU to emulate my *nix environments, and I’m pretty happy with having roughly the same set of commands when I go from platform to platform.
I think it really boils down to something simple, though — I am deathly afraid of facing a situation in which I’m on a Linux box and go to try something I can do in MSH, only to realize that I can’t.
