Does Terminal use actually make sense in the real world? (sh.itjust.works)

I know we all enjoy being nerds and using commands (H4ckerman). But now that everything is either a gui or web based, is there really any use to terminal commands?

For example, on windows I never used powershell or cmd hardly ever. I realize now I probably could have. But Linux just drives me to use it more, which i like anyway (because let's be honest, it makes us feel superior)

All day everyday. Why click through a GUI when I can slam out a command in 1/4 of the time to see what my resources or doing, or if something is acting weird. Watching logs tail in a terminal is always going to be faster and smoother than GUI as well. Debugging things as well.
