tcsh is hateful because csh is hateful as a scripting language.

As an interactive shell it's no more hateful than any other.

zsh is hateful because it's no more hateful a scripting langage than
anything else that accepts bourne shell syntax, but it has so many extensions
that scripts written by zsh users NEVER run in standard-ish shells without
extensive hacking.

Or is that programmer hate?

There's stuff above here
