	In one respect: no...

	Consider that the Powershell default is to /prevent/ execution of
script files unless some security settings have been changed; even local
script files need to be "signed" to be executed.

	Powershell is mainly aimed at system administration. I've spent weeks,
at work, where 90% of my day involved variations of a command like:

Get-ChildItem -Recurse -Filter "*.ad*" | Select-String -Pattern
"some-function-name"

{assignment was to trace use of some system calls up through to the user
API level to ensure that the API documented that it might block}
