This is a fairly widely held viewpoint, but when you get down to it,
neither the bourne shell, nor c-shell provide very elegant programming
languages.  C-shell does allow "prettier code", but the inconsistancies
will nip you from time to time.  Bourne shell scripts do have the
major advantage of being transportable back into the USG world, which
may or may not matter for the task at hand.

I here there's now a alt.computers.religion topic for just this sort of rwar...
