Oh, please note I am not attacking the code base in core, just that it is a good starting point and still needs a lot of work. Since Im one of the few users who develops on windows Im going to be addressing a lot of those issues and ensuring that the base that we currently have in core can mature into a solid project like what we have in compat. (I know the codebase in compat sucks, but its about 10 years old without any serious rewrites and supports way too many versions of mediawiki)

I have also found core to be difficult to use in some cases, but it is a much better codebase in general than the 'compat' dumping ground, and I am thankful for the people who have worked hard to bring it to its current state.
It is close to being ready for general use. We need more people trying it and reporting errors. If there are problems with mwparserfromhell on Windows, we need to understand and fix the problem in mwparserfromhell, and then properly set the dependency version in pywikibot core. fwiw, Betacommand is talking about this issue: https://github.com/earwig/mwparserfromhell/issues/54 https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/138209
