When I issue a `brew install package` command, I expect it to either install the package or fail installing the package, and not do something else entirely. Sometimes I need to do something quick, nix-shell has never given me any issues with that. Brew has taken 10 minutes before getting to the install process. It's severely annoying.

By contrast, other package managers just don’t update thing. You end up so out of sync it becomes a massive pain.

I can fix the pain when it comes. Brew is already slow, I don't need it to become slower still.
