It's basically a matter of opinion. To me, the ability to automate the use of a tool is a massive force multiplier which the cli is built for. To other people, the ease of use of a gui is preferable to googling for cli syntax or reading man pages. > Writing a data science pipeline with command line tools really just means writing a data science pipeline in your terminal's shell programming language. If that sounds like a good idea to you, I'd be curious to hear why. If by my terminals shell programming language you mean my terminals shell programming language, any program that can be called from the cli, any program that can export in csv, any program that can produce $format that can be converted to csv, and virtually limitless combinations of other tools and methods then yes!
