    they don’t want to mess with the terminal to troubleshoot any errors.

    I reject your premise that the purpose of the terminal is to troubleshoot errors. That is part of the widespread misconception I am talking about.

    The terminal is simply for using the computer. With all the command line utilities available, and their widespread interoperability, the terminal should be one of the first tools a user looks for.

    A GUI is a hammer. The CLI is the Snap-On tool truck.

      That was an example not a premise. But whatever. I give up.
