I love terminals because they have a perfect memory of all the things I've typed. Many IDEs lack this feature. They don't keep a history of every menu command that I've used. Shortcut keys works for simple queries, but you can compare that to the power of repeating complex Vim commands. I also like terminals because it feels like I'm talking to the computer more directly, we're not going through a 3rd party. What I don't like about terminals is that it feels like I'm in a dark tunnel when moving around the file hierarchy, I can only see the directories directly ahead and behind me. I guess things like FZF help to do quick searches, but you get a much more visual picture when using window file explorers.
