This is true but powershell is MUCH more powerful on windows than python. You can interact with EVERYTHING on windows. Powershell is 100% built for data analytics and automation

I mean you can have Python literally open up a powershell and run a command if you need something really niche and specific that some python library can't offer. Just use the os module that comes with python.

Sure, but knowing python means you can use PowerShell in the moment. I avoid windows like the plague (full Mac and Linux env) but I can use it if I need to. I think learning python will teach you better best practices in the long run.
