Nah it was eternally annoying that it didn't support Unix line endings. Also there are clearly a ton of basic features that people want from lightweight text editors.

A whopping 3% of their workforce.
Right but it's fast(ish) in spite of that. It would still be better with separate types.
Experience has shown that having a map as your only data structure is definitely a mistake. It's much better to support real arrays too. I doubt it would have made the implementation significantly more complex either (maybe even simpler for luajit).
If you think you need this you're doing it wrong. Nobody should be writing bash scripts more than a few lines long. Use a more sane language. Deno is pretty nice for scripting.
This has been the norm for literally decades. Doxygen was doing it in 1997 and I'm sure it wasn't the first.
Uhm, ship both. Most type systems are not expressive enough to 100% explain the correct use of an API.
In my experience unless you are pretty much immediately popping the stash it's much better just to make a branch and do a normal commit. I would recommend avoiding git stash in general.
To be fair they are definitely improving. It feels pretty incremental at this point though. I think we need one or two fundamental breakthroughs before we're going to see programmers actually out of jobs. E.g. if they find a way to do real on-line learning, or a way to stop the hallucinations.
Why? MATLAB is pretty dense normally, and most MATLAB code is hacky scripts that wouldn't bother with "boilerplate" anyway.
Oh that reminds me. I wouldn't recommend PIC in the 21st century but there's a really cool project called BIO that is an open source alternative to Raspberry's PIO (programmable IO). It's RV32-E with custom x16-31 registers that control the pins directly. Very neat idea.
It's by Bunnies Huang and he talks about it in this talk about Xous.

May be a bit hardcore for a beginner though.
Yeah you probably can't do to much more to
pwdoryesor whatever (yeah I know about the silly optimisations). I think once you get much beyond that there are always more features you can add. Even for something likecd, people have made fancier versions with fuzzy matching and so on.
