Firstly, gemini is focused on text files, as in the consumption of text files. Services offer logic and computation on top of data, so actual useful things like calendar, events, sms, email, chat. I don't think that's what gemini is doing. Whether that's through a shell or a chat client or web interface is really the question which comes down to the user. Ultimately the terminal is very much limited to developers, web and mobile apps are more accessible for end consumers so I'm more tempted to say web is the ultimate platform to build for while still providing a very simple text based experience that looks similar to chat but specifically for command & control.
