PowerShell is so alien to an experienced bash/zsh/etc. user that it's an entirely different language not any kind of drop-in replacement. Its designers also refuse to add simple things to make the switch any easier (e.g. https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell/issues/3316).

I wrote a pipe-objects-instead-of-strings shell: https://marceltheshell.org.
Not piping strings avoids this issue completely. Marcel’s ls produces a stream of File objects, which can be processed without worrying about whitespace, EOL, etc.
In general, this approach avoids parsing the output of any command. You always get a stream of Python values.

CLI tool and python library that converts the output of popular command-line tools, file-types, and common strings to JSON, YAML, or Dictionaries. This allows piping of output to tools like jq and simplifying automation scripts.
the thing with the coreutils is they provide basic core functionality; you dont need bash on your system - `ls` is not bash (and then you still end up with busybox where json still would not be part of ls). add more utilities to your system to do more complex logic; ive used similar apps to this in the past: https://github.com/kellyjonbrazil/jc
there's also using zero terminiated lines in ls with `--zero`; then piping that to a number of apps which also support similar (read,xargs,ect)
might also checkout powershell on linux which may suite your needs where instead of string manipulation, everything is a class object
