I've become exceptionally leery of GUIs for anything remotely complex. Scripting provides the kick in the ass incentive not to arbitrarily utterly bollox interactions as countless millions of scripts would have to be rewritten. You end up with stuff like Sendmail compatible commands and switches for mailers long since the former's heyday (qmail a notable exception). Or SSH and rsh being largely compatible.

GUIs have none of these features and change capriciously.This tends to keep user proficiency at a low general level over time.
