If I wrote a script for every command I executed to manipulate data I would have about a million small files lying around full of one off commands. Frequently I am just debugging or exploring data and I never want to see the command again - but if I do, it will be in my bash history.
One of Python's annoyances (which are few) is that it doesn't put enough in the default namespace to be convenient from the command line.
