PowerShell doesn't stop on errors either by default. And of course a significant number of tools you need aren't available in PowerShell, only cover partial functionality or are an exe you need to call so even if it did stop on error, doesn't work for those tools by default.
It is still a shock to me that some genius aliased curl to
Invoke-WebRequest
and thatcurl.exe
is what you actually want.
