This is really weird. I love working in the terminal precisely because I can do everything without using the mouse. I thought that's the point?

No hate though, I just don't get it.

Fully keyboard accessible GUI goes TAB TAB TAB ENTER.

That's better than nothing, obviously, but I wouldn't call pressing tab repeatedly the epitome of good keyboard-driven UX.

It's good for repetetive tasks & muscle memory compared to clicking. Lots of industry, banking or form entry (like in airports) is done with keyboard only GUI.

I was referring specifically to "tab only GUI". I'm sure a proper keyboard only GUI can be great.
