Tab completion has accelerated the success of new and experienced PowerShell users for over a

Lately, I've been spending time learning more about ssh. Sadly, I've rarely had a need to learn and
use ssh. But of course, with PowerShell 7 and ssh-based remoting, it is time to up my game. I've started deploying the ssh server component to my Windows test servers (I'll write about that another day) and exploring how to use ssh in my automation and scripting work.

Last week I created a minimalistic Create AD / Azure user script. Since then I have been asked to
make it easier to modify (Or more succinctly a Settings Page). This was a bit of work to think through. I am hoping someone might know of a more robust way to do what I am doing. This way I felt I could do with a bit of work. So I came up with two ways of implementing the same settings script.
