True, people persist with Bash and vim, but in the latter case it appears to be because they actually like it :-O Most people use Bash because it is the default and they have never tried anything else - just like the situation with most computer users and Windows. I'd been lectured on the wonders of zsh in the past, but it was only when I had to learn to use it (I wrote a comparative review of shells) that I realised what it offered over Bash as an interactive shell. As a scripting language, Bash is probably better, although if I need that much functionality in a script I would use Python instead of any shell variant.
