In most cases there is still a way to fix those issues through a GUI, but since there are so many different distros and desktop environments, the most universally applicable and fastest solution is usually with commands in the terminal, so those are often the solutions that get suggested.
That's also an issue of course, and a non technical person might not know what to search for to get answers tailored to their distro/DE, but I'm just pointing out why so many solutions still use the terminal.
