Except you have to memorize commands, which in my experience I always forget if I dont use them for, like, a week. Whereas with a well made gui you can deduce what you should do. Maybe have both?
Hmm, I should learn how to do that. But then I get used to it and then get annoyed when I format my pc or have to use a different one... Also with a gui it's usually poasible to have a combination of keys that navigate it (usually starting with alt), so that you can still feel like a super hacker who does everything with the keyboard
Honestly forgetting (lesser-used) commands and then looking them up is half of what I do when getting stuff done in the terminal, but it's pretty easy to use the --help flag or man pages - beyond that web searches are a gold mine of one-liners for nearly every situation.

but then you have to memorize aliases that nobody else uses and you also don't remember what they refer to
