Hah - I feel like mine is more reasonable than that, but human exceptionalism being what it is, I'm sure he would've thought the same. Still, I'd say asking ChatGPT to do these tasks is a fair bit more trivial than what that comment describes.
The things that are specific about a "thin wrapper" to ChatGPt versus a "thin wrapper" to some other program or system, is that a ChatGPT wrapper has to end-up as "plain old English/language". This has the challenge that any/many people can generate this language 'cause language generate is what (nearly all) people do (while creating even a "trivial" command line string is a specialized skill) and also the challenge that such an app will inherit ChatGPT's quality of being never more than "mostly" reliable at any given task (as a result of GPT-3-4 being just a product of an amazing brutal large text averaging process).
