That's really your choice as a user of Jupyter, GRASS GIS just provides the
Python API in addition to the command line interface. The command line
interface is there and you can use it from Bash or whatever else.

Use the exclamation mark lines in Jupyter (with IPython kernel). That
passes the line to your operating system. If you simply want general
command line syntax, that's the way to go on any platform. With that, you
can mix and match easily and that's relatively common thing to do. I'm
doing it a lot when experimenting, but for sharing I usually go with one
syntax which then needs to be Python.

I would have to check, but the I would guess that your Windows does not
have Bash on path? This %%bash creates quite nice experience on Linux
(locally, cloud, etc.), but I don't know if it is the right choice on
Windows, but that's up to you to decide.
