There’s nothing that can replace bash for what it does. People have been trying for decades. You’ll be happier if you accept that bash can and will happily coexist with anything and everything else, which is exactly why it will never go away.

Indeed. If I had to download and install bash … I wouldn’t!
I write bash scripts only because I can rely on it being there.
