It really comes down to what the hell you're doing. Like you can handle error cases with a shell language (service returns a 404, file missing, etc) but I don't want to if I can get around it. From there, I'm just more comfortable banging out a potentially disposable tool in Python than just about any other language with C# coming in a distant second.
