Powershell is stupid

Due to work I have to find installation solutions where I can not except anything being preinstalled. Therefore I have to use bash & powershell. Bash is ok, but with powershell… See yourself:

• GET-Web-Requests are cached by default:
  there is the option to disable caching via http-header, but it does not work for all methods
• Unicode interpretation:
  based on the language setting of the system each character can be interpreted differently. On a english system a unicode minus can get interpreted as a normal ascii minus. On a Chinese system, this unicode character is interpreted differently and the process can not be executed. Please disable BOM (byte-order-mark) on all files to prevent this issue.
• Escape-character:
  is a backtick(`), which is not easily distinguished by other ticks and therefore easily produces errors.
• Function-returns:
  if a single command has an stdout and is not captured to Out-Null it will return it as well. All Printing will be returned.
• Function-calls can be used with and without parentheses:
  The parameters then have to be passed differently.
• Strings with quotes:
  When declaring the string before hand can be interpreted differently to passing the string directly to a function call. If using double-quotes in strings you should always use them in combination of single-quotes. Using double-quotes in combination with themself and escaping the inner ones does not produce what you want.
• Scopes of variables:
  is not clear after a function call (only by using modules it is).
• Documentation:
  exists, but is very bad. It assumes you know the whole history of DOS.
• Strings-equality:
  can only truly be tested with ancient -eq but the == can sometimes work. same as in bash
• Case-insensitivity:
  is everywhere. Renaming files with a different casing can not be done due to “File already exists.”
• Loading of Modules:
  Import-Module loads a module, but if it has been loaded before it will be ignored. You always have to specify --force so the overload takes place.
• Write-Host should be removed:
  It never does what you want it to do. Most of the time Write-Verbose is what you want.
• @-symbol can cause weird behaviours:
  It is for example not allowed to be in the module description. It simply terminates the description string. The Highlighters of most programs do not respect this termination.
• Get-Credential-dialog:
  Any enter press will close the windows even if you want to select the value of a dropdown menu
• Folder-Auto-Completion:
  When changing the directory with Set-Location it iterates through all folders instead of showing all matching folder, so i can type the correct one.

If you have explanations for any of the claimed points. Please contact me and explain them. Otherwise I will keep them up for other people to know how much “fun” you can have with powershell.
