My primary use case for Amber is when I need to write a Bash script but don’t remember the silly syntax. My most recent Bash mistake was misusing test -n and test -z. In Amber, I can just use something == "" or len(something) == 0

    In which way is it weird? It’s different, but how is it weird?

    No need to apologize, you’re allowed your opinions and feelings.

    I would suggest reading the manual page for argparse thoroughly from top to bottom of you haven’t already. I struggled with argparse at first too, but it’s because I skimmed the manual instead of reading it.

    I would also read through all of the manual, and you’ll find useful idiomatic fish things like not setting PATH directly, but using fish_add_path, among other things. 👍
