One shell might be better for scripting and one for interactive use.

I switched to Z Shell because of its interactive features (it's "more
pretty"), and started scripting at the same time; now that I use Dired,
I have very limited interactive shell usage, but I still use zsh for
scripting.  Of course I use bash for any system-wide scripts or things
meant to run as root.
