Wasn't Murex some sort of backend software for financial institutions?

Still is. It's a French/Lebanese corp based in Paris/Beirut. I worked there for a few years early in my career.

Interesting. Looks similar to nushell [1] which also is data-encoding-aware.

This looks interesting, I will consider switching if it's not sluggish like zsh was that one day I tried it.

Maybe I’m just not the target audience, but looking at the front page, I don’t see what actual problems this solves. The claims sound nice, but without examples of what they mean in real world use, it’s not really compelling.

I may be wrong, but it gives me some powershell vibe. Since it seems to be targeted for macOS, I would assume it "solves" the lack of powershell equivalent on Mac ?

On Mac and Linux you can use powershell core:
