Author here, thanks for the comment. topicctl is really motivated by a desire to support rigorous, git-based topic management. The read-only views (tailing, repl, etc.) are secondary to that and are useful for our command-line-based workflows inside Segment, but are definitely not intended to replace all of the other good tooling out there, including the ones you've referenced.
