That is also my preference: "For quick and easy things, ... Bash".

Of course you run into the risk that the "quick and easy" starts to become a "complex" and you have to rewrite it to a "proper" language, but in theory your bash script is still very small and simple at that point.

In any case, I always recommend to learn Bash as it is the only thing that is installed in most servers, and as a backend developer, I find it irreplaceable.

Thanks for the comment!
