What OP fails to see is that GUIs are 80% of the reason why you see technology all around you. It’s the layer of simplification the vast majority of people need. PCs didn’t catch on until the GUIs were born. GUIs help architects design the same buildings OP lives in. 99% of the stuff in his home were designed and crafted tnx to a variety if GUIs in the process.

Having a contrarian view is fine. But keep things in the correct perspective.
