I don't get the thing that by default present cli usage as hard way compared to gui.

This can sometimes be true, but on many ocasion be the opposite: For instance I've been spending 3 hours watching an IT support techician seemingly clicking randomly everywhere to debug why the corporate sec/antivirus on my laptop is saying my configuration is not compliant. The provided gui and accompanied interface to check events is strikingly uninformative, slow and inefficient and having a simple cli tool with a -status or -report flag that would give you the reason it complain would be much easier to everyone involved.
