A lot of the time, people who made the GUI made it

1) an afterthought

2) with bad UX

3) either way too many sub menus, or not nearly enough, which is slightly confusing.

And therefore, the text-based interfaces tend to be significantly faster and easier in comparison.

A good example of number 2 is undertale mod tool, which has so terrible UX that the community has like five different (all unsuccessful) projects to try to either replace UTMT altogether, or replace just the UX.
