No, I know. And it wasn't aimed just at Tony. In fact, it wasn't aimed primarily at Tony.
But I was making a serious point too. Sometimes the CLI is faster and more efficient. Sometimes it is just different. But I will concede there are times when the GUI is much safer. Here is a good example of what I mean: something that is very fast and (too) easy on the CLI - and much safer on the GUI!
