I’d very much like a rundown of the gap between oilshell and bash in terms of features and compatibility, to know when I can start using it as a drop-in replacement and what I should expect to be different.
I started some notes here, and there is a big “known differences doc” (only for advanced users)

I have been addressing the gap for dozens of releases over years – the best way to improve it is to try it and tell me what’s wrong :)
