Terminals have history. Or if you are working locally, just put the command in a script and name it something more memorable.
GUI layouts get moved around so you have to relearn where options are. In some cases, options get removed entirely in the name of 'user friendliness', whereas nobody's going to do that with CLI options.
I used to think I knew the Firefox layout (I've used it for more than 15 years), but now it takes longer to find things than what it used to.
