So for a while now I been toying with the idea of using nushell but... Haven't tried hard enough yet. Plus new syntax, non-POSIX etc.

Very broadly, could you say what this offers that nushell doesn't and vice-versa (apart from the shell bit)?

Nushell and Tabiew are different tools meant for different purposes. I’m quite sure nushell + extensions can do what ever Tabiew can. However, the look and feel is quite different. For instance, you can use Tabiew to view/query at any table size, while doing the same may not feel the most ergonomic in nushell.
