/bin/firmwareConfig.py don't work ESXi7

why do you had the need to replace a working firmwareConfig.sh with a firmwareConfig.py which is eniretly broken?
and even if it would work - have you guys from Vmware ever heard about "shebang"
i guess it would be too easy for users not break CLI API's after updates
