Of course I don’t browse the web with the command line.
That's my point. Browsing the web with a command line tool is obnoxious - you use a GUI for tasks that you find easier/more pleasant to do with a GUI. The difference is where that line is. When I'm reviewing what work I've done and checking through my code for debugging statements and other cruft I don't want to push, I prefer to have a nice tree view of my change set where I can click on an item, see what I've changed, select lines and stage them, select other lines and revert them, etc. I could do all of that with command line tools (though not that many have mouse support) but I already know how to do exactly what I want with VSC so why would I use anything else?
You’re already programming! Just learn the tool!
If someone is incapable of learning the tool, that's an issue if they're a developer. But your statement implies that everyone should use the CLI for everything. My point is that it's a matter of preference. The CLI is not superior and GUIs aren't superior. They're both just tools and if you can get your job done quickly and efficiently, that's all that should matter.
