Not a downer at all! You're absolutely right that you lose power by strapping a GUI onto a CLI. In Gooey's case, that loss of power is actually the point! :) This is something that's called out in the main Gooey documentation, but omitted in this this guide: Gooey is made to solve the problem of getting usable software to non-techie people's hands without having to write layers of GUI code or change how we'd write software. The main idea that spawned Gooey was that it could act as an "impedance matcher" of sorts between how I want to write software as a developer (CLI), versus how end-users want to consume software (GUI).
