Who are these for? People who use the terminal but don’t like running shell commands?
OK sorry for throwing shade. If you use one of these, honestly, what features do you use that make it worthwhile?

For me, it’s about using the right tool for the job. Sometimes, using full GUI file manager is overkill, especially for copying just one file, and you know exactly where you want to copy it from and to.
And a TUI file manager like mc, ranger, nnn are a good in between level of ui, and is great for browsing files distraction free from the visual clutter of a full GUI file manager. That may seem like not a big deal, but I think it’s nice to be able to see things simply and straight to the point. For me, it just feels nice and less frustrating.
What I like about Linux is choice. And in this case, choice in file management. Pick the right tool, and you’ll get things done more efficiently, and with less annoyance.
