This sort of thing changes pretty slowly.
In the late 90s there were even heated opinions / discussions as to if it was worth while making debian support something other than bash as the /bin/sh provider.
Having gone through these changes, I think it's pretty interesting that we've landed on the anything-goes world we've got.

Still I would expect for Fish to be mentioned in an article published today.
