Python😎
While there certainly is some overlap, Python is a scripting language and not a shell language. Some tasks that involve calling lots of different programs and juggling input and output streams are much easier done in bash than in Python.
Absolutely true, it was more of a joke because Python is being used for pretty much anything today. I really don't want to mess with correct indentation in my terminal.
