The default configuration is horrible, and they won't change it
since compatibility with stone age and all zsh features switched
off is a design goal of the defaults. I already wrote on their
list that they are scaring new users this way, but they don't care.

However, the new-users module should give you already quite useful
instructions, and once you are really familiar with the configuration
possibilities, you will see that it is *much* superior to bash.
(Of course, you can bind any keys, in contrast to bash even to
shell functions - there is a whole interface for it).

In fact, I do not know a single feature of bash which is not
available (and usually better) in zsh, while for the converse
there are hundreds of examples (especially if you use extensions
like zsh-syntax-highlighting or auto-fu-zsh which make use of
the possibilities mentioned above).
You might want to try zshrc-mv from the mv overlay which is
intended to be used with your favorite bashrc (i.e. it
intentionally sets only zsh-specific features and not
bashrc-features like "ordinary" aliases).
