Feedback

https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell/issues/16350 and later duplicate https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell/issues/23949 demonstrate that these invocation scenarios do not work, resulting in confusing symptoms.

Unfortunately, the non-support of these invocation scenarios was declared to be by design (but the confusing bug was never fixed).

Please clearly document that Enter-PSSession is only supported when called from an interactive PowerShell session, directly from the prompt.
