Microsoft are pushing the command line to the point that:

a) Many operations in newer bits of Windows have simple-mode available in the GUI, but more sophisticated options must be scripted. StorageSpaces has a few examples of this, where some of the options around tiered storage, SSD caching, and the layout of pools can only be accessed via posh.

b) Microsoft are pushing completely headless versions of Windows Server for 2016.
