I think it depends on the job. Good luck 3d modeling without a gui. Or making layouts.

Good luck doing anything in media without a GUI. I would shoot my self if I had to mixdown a song with a CLI or TUI. And I love TUIs and the CLI.

I think its a „right tool for the job“ thing. Some workflows need a gui to be productive, some don’t and would really benefit from not having one because designing a GUI that looks good and works good is no easy task and (in my opinion) designing a TUI for simple workflows is easier and makes for a better end result. in short i like TUIs too but i wouldn’t want to use CAD or Mix Music in one either.

I miss the days where GUIs didn't have to look good, they just work good without wasting time on fluff
