It's like telling unhappy Win7 users to go back to DOS.

I often use cmd/powershell on windows machines and use terminals on macs.

I use those to do advanced troubleshooting/fixing stuff.

A gui is nice but the cli is getting more poweful each year. It can tell
you/allow you stuff that the gui just doesn't.

Try making sense of large logfiles by exclusively using a gui and get back
to me.
