I compared the syntax and features of zsh with ksh and bash, and have concluded that it is the fischer-price of shells.
It is essentially, tab-completion for ksh..............
and nothing more.

All shells are fisher-price. It's just how things work.

Weird, I run an OpenBSD box with ksh as the default and it has tab-completion. Maybe a feature they added that isn't in the proprietary versions.
