Not a PS1 expert by any means but you have to spend some time with it to appreciate the design decisions. It's a very "wholesomely" designed language.

Try eg. The for each parallel construct which made me realize why the output in PS1 behaves how it does.

That's always been the problem for me, I don't use it often enough to become fluent with it.

You're missing out. As a full time Linux user (since a year), PowerShell is by far the best shell out there (once it starts after 5 secs)
