It is indeed not (yet) a finished product.

For example, not all network tools are working. An overview I found; 
dated June '17:

As of Creators Update, the following tools should work:

  * ping
  * dig
  * ifconfig
  * ip link
  * ip addr show
  * ifconfig
  * whois
  * nslookup
  * ip route
  * ip addr add/delete

Not working:

  * nmap
  * tracepath
  * traceroute
  * traceroute6

Even so I believe it's always a good idea to offer a broad range of 
possibilities to get to know free software and the principles behind them.
