    When you need to. Other times when you need to pass lots of params and havent decided which ones are staying so scripts are a bit extra time which is not there and when you need to explore in a different way the domain area, GUIs or TUIs may be more suitable. I love what one can do out of simple tools like that and how nicely they compose but if the experience is draining, my brain is going to notice and start avoiding it next time
