Text is generic. With interfaces you have to design abstractions that are suited to the application. Like code, great UI abstractions make solving problems easier and pleasant. Wrong abstractions do the opposite, leaving users powerless to accomplish their goals. Text both fills a gap for when no abstraction is present and provides a fallback when the abstraction isn't good enough or discoverable.
