Linux is about cli, like Pascal is about begin end.
Cli is one tool in Linuxm but not the only tool.
Begin End is a syntax of Pascal. But Pascal is a programming language. It
create programs, not syntax.

I use cli, where it is needed, but not always itś a good idea to do it. You
need to find the balance where CLI is good and where you need something
more.
