    CLI can be good. The benefit of CLI is that it is fairly easy to build GUI front ends on top of a solid based.

    Not to mention CLI makes “quick fixes” easier.

            That’s what a lot of GUI apps are. They either call the CLI program directly or make calls to a library provided by or for CLI.

            Compare that to a GUI focused OS like Windows were the GUI is built into the low level architecture.
