Why are any of the tools beyond the bash tool required?

Surely listing files, searching a repo, editing a file can all be achieved with bash?

Or is this what's demonstrated by https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45001234?

My best guess is they started out with a limited subset of tools and realised they can just give it bash later.
