summary
Claims that PowerShell is the automation core for digital transformation backed by concrete outcomes: a new cross‑platform executable pwsh with compatibility tricks (implicit remoting, module copying) that lifts coverage from 367 to ≈1,853 then to ≈9,400 cmdlets; Azure Stack runs on ~250,000 lines of PowerShell and 472 cmdlets per VM and shows up in 2.5M+ instances; community supplies ~50% of PRs so feature direction and fixes actually get built and land in production.
