    Open “app” -> open menu -> select option -> change this /  push this button.

    Just as easy to write as a command. But many people (me included) is so used to go the CLI route that the GUI way is only an afterthought.

      No. First you, the helper, have to find the option in the gui. Then you have to look up every step in the path through the gui. At every step you have to find the english name for the button/menu (localization exists), and manually type it (because you can’t select and copy the text of the gui (by default at least)). Also just referring to buttons by name sometimes won’t work. It is so cumbersome.
