Your not reading.  He already listed a handfull, Juniper, Whistle, etc
all.  I'll ad 3 in I am working on, can't give you names, but 8K bites

And you can go compile the tcsh port, now you tell me what one is
easier for everyone involved.

FreeBSD != ObrienBSD, you've already lost the battle, you

more than one technical reason, now go back to your installs and just
deal with tcsh being a port.

Why a poll, I have seen 3 negatives and 1 ``if we do do this''.

Ohh.. and yess... I am still a confirmed anti-bloat screaming monger
from the good old days when a 10 command OS/8 CLI was just fine with
me, and PIP had more options than ls.
